.SS Options
Options can be specified with a single or double '-', and only as much of the option
name as necessary to disambiguate it from others is necessary. Note that options are case-sensitive.
+.PP
+\fB--add attributes\fP add column with counter having specified 'attributes'. The 'location' attribute is required, all others are optional.
+.nf
+ location: {\fBmsrDDD\fP | \fBmsr0xXXX\fP}
+ msrDDD is a decimal offset, eg. msr16
+ msr0xXXX is a hex offset, eg. msr0x10
+
+ scope: {\fBcpu\fP | \fBcore\fP | \fBpackage\fP}
+ sample and print the counter for every cpu, core, or package.
+ default: cpu
+
+ size: {\fBu32\fP | \fBu64\fP }
+ MSRs are read as 64-bits, u32 truncates the displayed value to 32-bits.
+ default: u64
+
+ format: {\fBraw\fP | \fBdelta\fP | \fBpercent\fP}
+ 'raw' shows the MSR contents in hex.
+ 'delta' shows the difference in values during the measurement interval.
+ 'percent' shows the delta as a percentage of the cycles elapsed.
+ default: delta
