| NAME |
| ---- |
| perf-report - Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display the profile |
| |
| SYNOPSIS |
| -------- |
| [verse] |
| 'perf report' [-i <file> | --input=file] |
| |
| DESCRIPTION |
| ----------- |
| This command displays the performance counter profile information recorded |
| via perf record. |
| |
| OPTIONS |
| ------- |
| -i:: |
| --input=:: |
| Input file name. (default: perf.data) |
| |
| -v:: |
| --verbose:: |
| Be more verbose. (show symbol address, etc) |
| |
| -d:: |
| --dsos=:: |
| Only consider symbols in these dsos. CSV that understands |
| file://filename entries. |
| -n:: |
| --show-nr-samples:: |
| Show the number of samples for each symbol |
| |
| --showcpuutilization:: |
| Show sample percentage for different cpu modes. |
| |
| -T:: |
| --threads:: |
| Show per-thread event counters |
| -C:: |
| --comms=:: |
| Only consider symbols in these comms. CSV that understands |
| file://filename entries. |
| -S:: |
| --symbols=:: |
| Only consider these symbols. CSV that understands |
| file://filename entries. |
| |
| -U:: |
| --hide-unresolved:: |
| Only display entries resolved to a symbol. |
| |
| -s:: |
| --sort=:: |
| Sort by key(s): pid, comm, dso, symbol, parent. |
| |
| -p:: |
| --parent=<regex>:: |
| regex filter to identify parent, see: '--sort parent' |
| |
| -x:: |
| --exclude-other:: |
| Only display entries with parent-match. |
| |
| -w:: |
| --column-widths=<width[,width...]>:: |
| Force each column width to the provided list, for large terminal |
| readability. |
| |
| -t:: |
| --field-separator=:: |
| |
| Use a special separator character and don't pad with spaces, replacing |
| all occurrences of this separator in symbol names (and other output) |
| with a '.' character, that thus it's the only non valid separator. |
| |
| -D:: |
| --dump-raw-trace:: |
| Dump raw trace in ASCII. |
| |
| -g [type,min]:: |
| --call-graph:: |
| Display call chains using type and min percent threshold. |
| type can be either: |
| - flat: single column, linear exposure of call chains. |
| - graph: use a graph tree, displaying absolute overhead rates. |
| - fractal: like graph, but displays relative rates. Each branch of |
| the tree is considered as a new profiled object. + |
| Default: fractal,0.5. |
| |
| --pretty=<key>:: |
| Pretty printing style. key: normal, raw |
| |
| --stdio:: Use the stdio interface. |
| |
| --tui:: Use the TUI interface, that is integrated with annotate and allows |
| zooming into DSOs or threads, among other features. Use of --tui |
| requires a tty, if one is not present, as when piping to other |
| commands, the stdio interface is used. |
| |
| -k:: |
| --vmlinux=<file>:: |
| vmlinux pathname |
| |
| --kallsyms=<file>:: |
| kallsyms pathname |
| |
| -m:: |
| --modules:: |
| Load module symbols. WARNING: This should only be used with -k and |
| a LIVE kernel. |
| |
| -f:: |
| --force:: |
| Don't complain, do it. |
| |
| --symfs=<directory>:: |
| Look for files with symbols relative to this directory. |
