NAME

6       trace-cmd-mem - show memory usage of certain kmem events

SYNOPSIS

9       trace-cmd mem [OPTIONS][input-file]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The trace-cmd(1) mem requires a trace-cmd record that enabled the
13       following events:
14
15           kmalloc
16           kmalloc_node
17           kfree
18           kmem_cache_alloc
19           kmem_cache_alloc_node
20           kmem_cache_alloc_free
21
22       It then reads the amount requested and the ammount freed as well as the
23       functions that called the allocation. It then reports the final amount
24       of bytes requested and allocated, along with the total amount allocated
25       and requested, as well as the max allocation and requested during the
26       run. It reports the amount of wasted bytes (allocated - requested) that
27       was not freed, as well as the max wasted amount during the run. The
28       list is sorted by descending order of wasted bytes after the run.

OPTIONS

49           By default, trace-cmd hist will read the file trace.dat. But the -i
50           option open up the given input-file instead. Note, the input file
51           may also be specified as the last item on the command line.
