Currently it prints all metric headers for JSON output. But actually it
skips some metrics with valid_only_metric(). So the output looks like:
$ perf stat --metric-only --json true
{"unit" : "CPUs utilized", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "GHz", "unit" : "insn per cycle", "unit" : "/sec", "unit" : "branch-misses of all branches"}
{"metric-value" : "3.861"}{"metric-value" : "0.79"}{"metric-value" : "3.04"}
As you can see there are 8 units in the header but only 3 metric-values
are there. It should skip the unused headers as well. Also each unit
should be printed as a separate object like metric values.
With this patch:
$ perf stat --metric-only --json true
{"unit" : "GHz"}{"unit" : "insn per cycle"}{"unit" : "branch-misses of all branches"}
{"metric-value" : "4.166"}{"metric-value" : "0.73"}{"metric-value" : "2.96"}

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.
