It was using some bash-specific features and failed to parse when
running with a different shell like below:

It calculates IPC from the cycles and instruction counts and compares it
with the shadow stat for both global aggregation (default) and no
aggregation mode.
$ perf stat -a -A -e cycles,instructions sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'system wide':
CPU0 39,580,880 cycles
CPU1 45,426,945 cycles
CPU2 31,151,685 cycles
CPU3 55,167,421 cycles
CPU0 17,073,564 instructions # 0.43 insn per cycle
CPU1 34,955,764 instructions # 0.77 insn per cycle
CPU2 15,688,459 instructions # 0.50 insn per cycle
CPU3 34,699,217 instructions # 0.63 insn per cycle
1.003275495 seconds time elapsed
In this example, the 'insn per cycle' should be matched to the number
for each cpu. For CPU2, 0.50 = 15,688,459 / 31,151,685 .
