perf stat: Correct --no-aggr description
Description of --no-aggr in perf-stat man page is outdated. --no-aggr can also be used while profiling specific set of cpus. For ex, $ perf stat -e cycles,instructions -C 1-2 --no-aggr -- sleep 1 Performance counter stats for 'CPU(s) 1-2': CPU1 5,94,92,795 cycles CPU2 2,69,72,403 cycles CPU1 2,02,08,327 instructions # 0.34 insn per cycle CPU2 73,17,123 instructions # 0.12 insn per cycle 1.000989132 seconds time elapsed Signed-off-by: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Alexander Shishkin <alexander.shishkin@linux.intel.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1490013438-5713-1-git-send-email-ravi.bangoria@linux.vnet.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
