[PATCH 05/10] perf list: Add usage
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Tue Nov 05 2013 - 15:12:13 EST
From: David Ahern <dsahern@xxxxxxxxx>
Currently 'perf list' is not very helpful if you forget the syntax:
$ perf list -h
List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e):
After:
$ perf list -h
usage: perf list [hw|sw|cache|tracepoint|pmu|event_glob]
