 --no-aggr::
 Do not aggregate counts across all monitored CPUs.
 
+--topdown::
+Print top down level 1 metrics if supported by the CPU. This allows to
+determine bottle necks in the CPU pipeline for CPU bound workloads,
+by breaking the cycles consumed down into frontend bound, backend bound,
+bad speculation and retiring.
+
+Frontend bound means that the CPU cannot fetch and decode instructions fast
+enough. Backend bound means that computation or memory access is the bottle
+neck. Bad Speculation means that the CPU wasted cycles due to branch
+mispredictions and similar issues. Retiring means that the CPU computed without
+an apparently bottleneck. The bottleneck is only the real bottleneck
+if the workload is actually bound by the CPU and not by something else.
+
+For best results it is usually a good idea to use it with interval
+mode like -I 1000, as the bottleneck of workloads can change often.
+
+The top down metrics are collected per core instead of per
+CPU thread. Per core mode is automatically enabled
+and -a (global monitoring) is needed, requiring root rights or
+perf.perf_event_paranoid=-1.
+
+Topdown uses the full Performance Monitoring Unit, and needs
+disabling of the NMI watchdog (as root):
+echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/nmi_watchdog
+for best results. Otherwise the bottlenecks may be inconsistent
+on workload with changing phases.
+
+This enables --metric-only, unless overriden with --no-metric-only.
+
+To interpret the results it is usually needed to know on which
+CPUs the workload runs on. If needed the CPUs can be forced using
+taskset.

+ * High level "TopDown" CPU core pipe line bottleneck break down.
+ *
+ * Basic concept following
+ * Yasin, A Top Down Method for Performance analysis and Counter architecture
+ * ISPASS14
+ *
+ * The CPU pipeline is divided into 4 areas that can be bottlenecks:
+ *
+ * Frontend -> Backend -> Retiring
+ * BadSpeculation in addition means out of order execution that is thrown away
+ * (for example branch mispredictions)
+ * Frontend is instruction decoding.
+ * Backend is execution, like computation and accessing data in memory
+ * Retiring is good execution that is not directly bottlenecked
+ *
+ * The formulas are computed in slots.
+ * A slot is an entry in the pipeline each for the pipeline width
+ * (for example a 4-wide pipeline has 4 slots for each cycle)
+ *
+ * Formulas:
+ * BadSpeculation = ((SlotsIssued - SlotsRetired) + RecoveryBubbles) /
+ *			TotalSlots
+ * Retiring = SlotsRetired / TotalSlots
+ * FrontendBound = FetchBubbles / TotalSlots
+ * BackendBound = 1.0 - BadSpeculation - Retiring - FrontendBound
+ *
+ * The kernel provides the mapping to the low level CPU events and any scaling
+ * needed for the CPU pipeline width, for example:
+ *
+ * TotalSlots = Cycles * 4
+ *
+ * The scaling factor is communicated in the sysfs unit.
+ *
+ * In some cases the CPU may not be able to measure all the formulas due to
+ * missing events. In this case multiple formulas are combined, as possible.
+ *
+ * Full TopDown supports more levels to sub-divide each area: for example
+ * BackendBound into computing bound and memory bound. For now we only
+ * support Level 1 TopDown.
