Subject[PATCH 2/2] perf tools: Provide help for subset of options
Date
From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

Some tools have a lot of options, so, providing a way to show help just
for some of them may come handy:

$ perf report -h --tui

Usage: perf report [<options>]

--tui Use the TUI interface

$ perf report -h --tui --showcpuutilization -b -c

Usage: perf report [<options>]

-b, --branch-stack use branch records for per branch histogram filling
-c, --comms <comm[,comm...]>
only consider symbols in these comms
--showcpuutilization
Show sample percentage for different cpu modes
--tui Use the TUI interface

$

Using it with perf bash completion is also handy, just make sure you
source the needed file:

$ . ~/git/linux/tools/perf/perf-completion.sh

Then press tab/tab after -- to see a list of options, put them after -h
and only the options chosen will have its help presented:

$ perf report -h --
--asm-raw --demangle-kernel --group
--kallsyms --pretty --stdio
--branch-history --disassembler-style --gtk
--max-stack --showcpuutilization --symbol-filter
--branch-stack --dsos --header
--mem-mode --show-info --symbols
--call-graph --dump-raw-trace --header-only
--modules --show-nr-samples --symfs
--children --exclude-other --hide-unresolved
--objdump --show-ref-call-graph --threads
--column-widths --fields --ignore-callees
--parent --show-total-period --tid
--comms --field-separator --input
--percentage --socket-filter --tui
--cpu --force --inverted
--percent-limit --sort --verbose
--demangle --full-source-path --itrace
--pid --source --vmlinux
$ perf report -h --socket-filter

Usage: perf report [<options>]

--socket-filter <n>
only show processor socket that match with this filter
