perf report: Add --header/--header-only options
Currently the perf.data header is always displayed for stdio output, which is no always useful. Disabling header information by default and adding following options to control header output: --header - display header information (old default) --header-only - display header information only w/o further processing, forces stdio output Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Cc: Stephane Eranian <eranian@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1386583370-1699-2-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com [ Added single line explaining talking about the new --header* options, to address David Ahern comment; better man page entry for the new options, from Namhyung Kim ] Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
