    perf stat: Add support to print counts for fixed times · db06a269
    yuzhoujian authored
    Introduce a new option to print counts for fixed number of times and
    update 'perf stat' documentation accordingly.
    
    Show below is the output of the new option for perf stat.
    
      $ perf stat -I 1000 --interval-count 2 -e cycles -a
      #           time             counts unit events
               1.002827089         93,884,870      cycles
               2.004231506         56,573,446      cycles
    
    We can just print the counts for several times with this newly
    introduced option. The usage of it is a little like 'vmstat', and it
    should be used together with "-I" option.
    
      $ vmstat -n 1 2

    Changes since v3:
    - merge interval_count check and times check to one line.
    - fix the wrong indent in stat.h
    - use stat_config.times instead of 'times' in cmd_stat function.
    
    Changes since v2:
    - none.
    
    Changes since v1:
    - change the name of the new option "times-print" to "interval-count".
    - keep the new option interval specifically.
