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.
