-In order to collect AutoFDO profile, you need to have:
-
-1. A linux system with linux perf support
-2. (optional) An Intel processor with last branch record (LBR) support. This is
-   to guarantee accurate instruction level profile, which is important for
-   AutoFDO performance.
-
-To collect the profile, first use linux perf to collect raw profile
-(see @uref{https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/}).

+@var{path} is the name of a file containing AutoFDO profile information.
+If omitted, it defaults to @file{fbdata.afdo} in the current directory.
+
+Producing an AutoFDO profile data file requires running your program
+with the @command{perf} utility on a supported GNU/Linux target system.
+For more information, see @uref{https://perf.wiki.kernel.org/}.
 
 E.g.
-@code{perf record -e br_inst_retired:near_taken -b -o perf.data -- your_program}
+@smallexample
+perf record -e br_inst_retired:near_taken -b -o perf.data \
+    -- your_program
+@end smallexample
 
-Then use create_gcov tool, which takes raw profile and unstripped binary to
-generate AutoFDO profile that can be used by GCC.
-(see @uref{https://github.com/google/autofdo}).
+Then use the @command{create_gcov} tool to convert the raw profile data
+to a format that can be used by GCC.@  You must also supply the 
+unstripped binary for your program to this tool.  
+See @uref{https://github.com/google/autofdo}.
 
 E.g.
-@code{create_gcov --binary=your_program.unstripped --profile=perf.data --gcov=profile.afdo}
+@smallexample
+create_gcov --binary=your_program.unstripped --profile=perf.data \
