    perf stat: Add per-core aggregation · 12c08a9f

    This patch adds the --per-core option to perf stat.
    
    This option is used to aggregate system-wide counts
    on a per physical core basis. On processors with
    hyperthreading, this means counts of all HT threads
    running on a physical core are aggregated.
    
    This mode is useful to find imblance between physical
    cores running an uniform workload. Cores are identified
    by socket: S0-C1, means physical core 1 on socket 0. Note
    that cores are identified using their physical core id,
    thus their numbering may not be continuous.
    
    Per core aggregation can be combined with interval printing:
    
     # perf stat -a --per-core -I 1000 -e cycles sleep 1000
     #           time core         cpus             counts events
          1.000090030 S0-C0           1          4,765,747 cycles
          1.000090030 S0-C1           1          5,580,647 cycles
          1.000090030 S0-C2           1            221,181 cycles
          1.000090030 S0-C3           1            266,092 cycles
