+NAME
+----
+perf-timer - Tool to trace/measure kernel timer properties
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'perf timer' {record|latency} [<options>]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+There are two variants of perf timer:
+
+ 'perf timer record <command>' to record the timer events
+ of an arbitrary workload.
+
+ 'perf timer latency' to report kernel timer latency and
+ timer function handle time.
+
+OPTIONS
+-------
+-D::
+--dump-raw-trace=::
+ Display verbose dump of the sched data.
+
+-i <file>::
+--input=<file>::
+ Select the input file (default: perf.data)
+
+-s <key[,key2...]>::
+--sort=<key[,key2...]>::
+ Sort the output (default: timer, type, avg-timer-latency,
+ max-timer-latency, avg-handle-time, max-handle-time)
