Adding possibility to specify mmap size via -m/--mmap-pages by appending unit size character (B/K/M/G) to the number, like: $ perf record -m 8K ls $ perf record -m 2M ls The size is rounded up appropriately to follow perf mmap restrictions. If no unit is specified the number provides pages as of now, like: $ perf record -m 8 ls Signed-off-by: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Corey Ashford <cjashfor@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1378031796-17892-3-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

=============

NAME
|
|
----
|
|
perf-trace - strace inspired tool
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
--------
|
|
[verse]
|
|
'perf trace'
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
This command will show the events associated with the target, initially
|
|
syscalls, but other system events like pagefaults, task lifetime events,
|
|
scheduling events, etc.
|
|
|
|
Initially this is a live mode only tool, but eventually will work with
|
|
perf.data files like the other tools, allowing a detached 'record' from
|
|
analysis phases.
|
|
|
|
OPTIONS
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
-a::
|
|
--all-cpus::
|
|
System-wide collection from all CPUs.
|
|
|
|
-e::
|
|
--expr::
|
|
List of events to show, currently only syscall names.
|
|
Prefixing with ! shows all syscalls but the ones specified. You may
|
|
need to escape it.
|
|
|
|
-o::
|
|
--output=::
|
|
Output file name.
|
|
|
|
-p::
|
|
--pid=::
|
|
Record events on existing process ID (comma separated list).
|
|
|
|
-t::
|
|
--tid=::
|
|
Record events on existing thread ID (comma separated list).
|
|
|
|
-u::
|
|
--uid=::
|
|
Record events in threads owned by uid. Name or number.
|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
--verbose=::
|
|
Verbosity level.
|
|
|
|
-i::
|
|
--no-inherit::
|
|
Child tasks do not inherit counters.
|
|
|
|
-m::
|
|
--mmap-pages=::
|
|
Number of mmap data pages (must be a power of two) or size
|
|
specification with appended unit character - B/K/M/G. The
|
|
size is rounded up to have nearest pages power of two value.
|
|
|
|
-C::
|
|
--cpu::
|
|
Collect samples only on the list of CPUs provided. Multiple CPUs can be provided as a
|
|
comma-separated list with no space: 0,1. Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2.
|
|
In per-thread mode with inheritance mode on (default), Events are captured only when
|
|
the thread executes on the designated CPUs. Default is to monitor all CPUs.
|
|
|
|
--duration:
|
|
Show only events that had a duration greater than N.M ms.
|
|
|
|
--sched:
|
|
Accrue thread runtime and provide a summary at the end of the session.
|
|
|
|
-i
|
|
--input
|
|
Process events from a given perf data file.
|
|
|
|
-T
|
|
--time
|
|
Print full timestamp rather time relative to first sample.
|
|
|
|
--comm::
|
|
Show process COMM right beside its ID, on by default, disable with --no-comm.
