2 * perfstat: /usr/bin/time -alike performance counter statistics utility
3 *
4 * It summarizes the counter events of all tasks (and child tasks),
5 * covering all CPUs that the command (or workload) executes on.
6 * It only counts the per-task events of the workload started,
7 * independent of how many other tasks run on those CPUs.
8 *
9 * Build with: cc -O2 -g -lrt -Wall -W -o perfstat perfstat.c
10 *
11 * Sample output:
12 *

14 $ ./perfstat -e 1 -e 3 -e 5 ls -lR /usr/include/ >/dev/null
