I removed the log files because they contained what I considered private
information, like what programs I'm running.
Anyway, this is a simple documentation bug so there shouldn't be any
diagnosis your logs would help with anyway, aside from knowing the
package information 'linux-tools-generic 3.13.0.37.44' which is included
in the main text. Setting to confirmed.

Title:
'man perf-stat' has bad notation for specifying multiple events of
interest
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
The SYNOPSIS in the manpage of perf-stat(1) says:
perf stat [-e <EVENT> | --event=EVENT] [-a] <command>
where -e specifies events of interest:
-e, --event=
Select the PMU event. Selection can be a symbolic event name (use
perf list to list all events) or a raw PMU event
(eventsel+umask) in the form of rNNN where NNN is a hexadecimal
event descriptor.
Nowhere in the manpage does it say how to specify multiple events, or
even whether that is possible. A strict reading of the syntax would
suggest that it actually *isn't* possible.
Now, it's not hard to guess: either 'perf -e event1 -e event2 ...' or
'perf -e event1,event2' seems to work, but this should be specified
explicitly. Perhaps something like
-e, --event=
Select the PMU event. Selection can be a symbolic event name (use
perf list to list all events) or a raw PMU event
(eventsel+umask) in the form of rNNN where NNN is a hexadecimal
event descriptor. Multiple events can be specified
either as a comma-separated list or as multiple -e <EVENT> options.
