This is a preparation to add more sub-commands for ftrace. The
'trace' subcommand does the same thing when no subcommand is given.
Committer testing:
The previous mode, i.e. no subcommand and the new 'perf ftrace trace'
are equivalent:
# perf ftrace -G check_preempt_curr sleep 0.00001
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
25) | check_preempt_curr() {
25) | resched_curr() {
25) | native_smp_send_reschedule() {
25) | default_send_IPI_single_phys() {
25) 0.110 us | __default_send_IPI_dest_field();
25) 0.490 us | }
25) 0.640 us | }
25) 0.850 us | }
25) 2.060 us | }
# perf ftrace trace -G check_preempt_curr sleep 0.00001
# tracer: function_graph
#
# CPU DURATION FUNCTION CALLS
# | | | | | | |
10) | check_preempt_curr() {
10) | resched_curr() {
10) | native_smp_send_reschedule() {
10) | default_send_IPI_single_phys() {
10) 0.080 us | __default_send_IPI_dest_field();
10) 0.460 us | }
10) 0.610 us | }
10) 0.830 us | }
10) 2.020 us | }

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
