So here it goes a v4, just a minor change to avoid adding another global
variable and make this operation parm like the other parms inside that
struct perf_mem, attached goes the interdiff from your patch to this one
here, ok?

-"perf mem -t <TYPE> record" runs a command and gathers memory operation data
+"perf mem record" runs a command and gathers memory operation data
from it, into perf.data. Perf record options are accepted and are passed through.
-"perf mem -t <TYPE> report" displays the result. It invokes perf report with the
-right set of options to display a memory access profile.
+"perf mem report" displays the result. It invokes perf report with the

+and stores are sampled. Use the -t option to limit to loads or stores.
Note that on Intel systems the memory latency reported is the use-latency,
not the pure load (or store latency). Use latency includes any pipeline
