 DESCRIPTION
 -----------
@@ -24,23 +28,53 @@ There are several variants of perf trace:
   available via 'perf trace -l').  The following variants allow you to
   record and run those scripts:
 
-  'perf trace record <script>' to record the events required for 'perf
-  trace report'.  <script> is the name displayed in the output of
-  'perf trace --list' i.e. the actual script name minus any language
-  extension.
+  'perf trace record <script> <command>' to record the events required
+  for 'perf trace report'.  <script> is the name displayed in the
+  output of 'perf trace --list' i.e. the actual script name minus any
+  language extension.  If <command> is not specified, the events are
+  recorded using the -a (system-wide) 'perf record' option.
 
-  'perf trace report <script>' to run and display the results of
-  <script>.  <script> is the name displayed in the output of 'perf
+  'perf trace report <script> [args]' to run and display the results
+  of <script>.  <script> is the name displayed in the output of 'perf
   trace --list' i.e. the actual script name minus any language
   extension.  The perf.data output from a previous run of 'perf trace
   record <script>' is used and should be present for this command to
-  succeed.
+  succeed.  [args] refers to the (mainly optional) args expected by
+  the script.
+
+  'perf trace <script> <required-script-args> <command>' to both
+  record the events required for <script> and to run the <script>
+  using 'live-mode' i.e. without writing anything to disk.  <script>
+  is the name displayed in the output of 'perf trace --list' i.e. the
+  actual script name minus any language extension.  If <command> is
+  not specified, the events are recorded using the -a (system-wide)
+  'perf record' option.  If <script> has any required args, they
+  should be specified before <command>.  This mode doesn't allow for
+  optional script args to be specified; if optional script args are
+  desired, they can be specified using separate 'perf trace record'
+  and 'perf trace report' commands, with the stdout of the record step
+  piped to the stdin of the report script, using the '-o -' and '-i -'
+  options of the corresponding commands.
+
+  'perf trace <top-script>' to both record the events required for
+  <top-script> and to run the <top-script> using 'live-mode'
+  i.e. without writing anything to disk.  <top-script> is the name
+  displayed in the output of 'perf trace --list' i.e. the actual
+  script name minus any language extension; a <top-script> is defined
+  as any script name ending with the string 'top'.
+
+  [<record-options>] can be passed to the record steps of 'perf trace
+  record' and 'live-mode' variants; this isn't possible however for
+  <top-script> 'live-mode' or 'perf trace report' variants.
 
   See the 'SEE ALSO' section for links to language-specific
   information on how to write and run your own trace scripts.
