[PATCH 08/13] perf tools: Add the bash completion for listing subsubcommands of perf help

From: Yunlong Song
Date: Wed Mar 18 2015 - 09:36:07 EST


The bash completion does not support listing subsubcommands for 'perf
help <TAB>', so fix it.

Example:

Before this patch:

$ perf help <TAB>
$

As shown above, the subsubcommands of perf help does not come out.

After this patch:

$ perf help <TAB>
annotate buildid-cache data evlist inject
kvm lock probe report script
test top
bench buildid-list diff help kmem
list mem record sched stat
timechart trace

As shown above, the subsubcommands of perf help can come out now.
