Subject: Re: [PATCH v1 05/10] perf, report: Show all sort keys in help output

Here's an updated patch with line wrapping.

---

perf report: Show all sort keys in help output

Show all the supported sort keys in the command line help output,
so that it's not needed to refer to the manpage.

Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@...ux.intel.com>

v2: Now line wrap output.
