NAME¶
perf-inject - Filter to augment the events stream with additional informationSYNOPSIS¶
perf inject <options>
DESCRIPTION¶
perf-inject reads a perf-record event stream and repipes it to stdout. At any point the processing code can inject other events into the event stream - in this case build-ids (-b option) are read and injected as needed into the event stream. Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially anything that needs userspace processing to augment the events stream with additional information could make use of this facility.OPTIONS¶
-b, --build-ids=Inject build-ids into the output stream
-v, --verbose
Be more verbose.
-i, --input=
Input file name. (default: stdin)
-o, --output=
Output file name. (default: stdout)
-s, --sched-stat
Merge sched_stat and sched_switch for getting events
where and how long tasks slept. sched_switch contains a callchain where a task
slept and sched_stat contains a timeslice how long a task slept.
--kallsyms=<file>
kallsyms pathname
--itrace
Decode Instruction Tracing data, replacing it with
synthesized events. Options are:
--strip
i synthesize instructions events b synthesize branches events c synthesize branches events (calls only) r synthesize branches events (returns only) x synthesize transactions events e synthesize error events d create a debug log g synthesize a call chain (use with i or x) l synthesize last branch entries (use with i or x)
The default is all events i.e. the same as --itrace=ibxe
In addition, the period (default 100000) for instructions events can be specified in units of:
i instructions t ticks ms milliseconds us microseconds ns nanoseconds (default)
Also the call chain size (default 16, max. 1024) for instructions or transactions events can be specified.
Also the number of last branch entries (default 64, max. 1024) for instructions or transactions events can be specified.
Use with --itrace to strip out non-synthesized
events.
