'perf kmem' has an input file option but current an output file option
fails:
$ sudo perf kmem record -o /tmp/p.data sleep 1
Error: unknown switch `o'
Usage: perf kmem [<options>] {record|stat}
-f, --force don't complain, do it
-i, --input <file> input file name
-l, --line <num> show n lines
-s, --sort <key[,key2...]>
sort by keys: ptr, callsite, bytes, hit, pingpong, frag, page, order, mig>
-v, --verbose be more verbose (show symbol address, etc)
--alloc show per-allocation statistics
--caller show per-callsite statistics
--live Show live page stat
--page Analyze page allocator
--raw-ip show raw ip instead of symbol
--slab Analyze slab allocator
--time <str> Time span of interest (start,stop)
'perf sched' is similar in implementation and avoids the problem by
passing additional arguments to 'perf record'.
This change makes 'perf kmem' parse command line options consistently
with 'perf sched', although neither actually list that -o is a supported
option.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
