In v2.9 of the Performance Counter Module, the first header field in the CSV output (using the -csv= option) is missing a number of semicolons equal to the number of cores in the system. So, each core is missing a single semicolon. For example, my system has 72 cores across two sockets. The first line in my file has 1254 semicolons, whereas the second line has 1326. Subtracting them gives the one missing semicolon per core.
Here's a patch that fixes the issue:
