+Each line of the perf script output represents each monitoring region. The
+first five fields are as usual other tracepoint outputs. The sixth field
+(``target_id=X``) shows the ide of the monitoring target of the region. The
+seventh field (``nr_regions=X``) shows the total number of monitoring regions
+for the target. The eighth field (``X-Y:``) shows the start (``X``) and end
+(``Y``) addresses of the region in bytes. The ninth field (``X``) shows the
+``nr_accesses`` of the region (refer to
+:ref:`design <damon_design_region_based_sampling>` for more details of the
+counter). Finally the tenth field (``X``) shows the ``age`` of the region
+(refer to :ref:`design <damon_design_age_tracking>` for more details of the
+counter).
