Agreed, fixed.
Btw., we should allow "--flag 0/1" type of input for bool options as well,
it's easier for scripting. Any other integer should be rejected, and
non-integer should be interpreted as the next option.
In addition, it would be nice to allow the following two aliases as well:
--non-flag
--dont-flag
So that the following can be written:
--threaded
--non-threaded
or, if the option name is a verb:
--use-threads
--dont-use-threads
Instead of forcing the following incorrect grammar on users:
--no-threaded
--no-use-threads

Fixed this too - new version attached.
Thanks,

Allow the measurement of thread versus process context switch
performance.
The default stays at 'process' based measurement, like lmbench's
lat_ctx benchmark.
Sample output:
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> taskset 1 ./perf bench sched pipe
# Running sched/pipe benchmark...
# Executed 1000000 pipe operations between two processes
Total time: 4.138 [sec]
4.138729 usecs/op
241620 ops/sec
comet:~/tip/tools/perf> taskset 1 ./perf bench sched pipe --threaded
# Running sched/pipe benchmark...
# Executed 1000000 pipe operations between two threads
Total time: 3.667 [sec]
3.667667 usecs/op
272652 ops/sec
