6 perf-annotate - Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display
7 annotated code
8
10 perf annotate [-i <file> | --input=file] [symbol_name]
11
13 This command reads the input file and displays an annotated version of
14 the code. If the object file has debug symbols then the source code
15 will be displayed alongside assembly code.
16
17 If there is no debug info in the object, then annotated assembly is
18 displayed.
19
21 -i, --input=
22 Input file name. (default: perf.data unless stdin is a fifo)
23
24 -d, --dsos=<dso[,dso...]>
25 Only consider symbols in these dsos.
26
27 -s, --symbol=<symbol>
28 Symbol to annotate.
29
30 -f, --force
31 Don’t do ownership validation.
32
33 -v, --verbose
34 Be more verbose. (Show symbol address, etc)
35
36 -q, --quiet
37 Do not show any message. (Suppress -v)
38
39 -n, --show-nr-samples
40 Show the number of samples for each symbol
41
42 -D, --dump-raw-trace
43 Dump raw trace in ASCII.
44
45 -k, --vmlinux=<file>
46 vmlinux pathname.
47
48 -m, --modules
49 Load module symbols. WARNING: use only with -k and LIVE kernel.
50
51 -l, --print-line
52 Print matching source lines (may be slow).
53
54 -P, --full-paths
55 Don’t shorten the displayed pathnames.
56
57 --stdio
58 Use the stdio interface.
59
60 --stdio-color
61 always, never or auto, allowing configuring color output via the
62 command line, in addition to via "color.ui" .perfconfig. Use
63 --stdio-color always to generate color even when redirecting to a
64 pipe or file. Using just --stdio-color is equivalent to using
65 always.
66
67 --tui
68 Use the TUI interface. Use of --tui requires a tty, if one is not
69 present, as when piping to other commands, the stdio interface is
70 used. This interfaces starts by centering on the line with more
71 samples, TAB/UNTAB cycles through the lines with more samples.
72
73 --gtk
74 Use the GTK interface.
75
76 -C, --cpu
77 Only report samples for the list of CPUs provided. Multiple CPUs
78 can be provided as a comma-separated list with no space: 0,1.
79 Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2. Default is to report
80 samples on all CPUs.
81
82 --asm-raw
83 Show raw instruction encoding of assembly instructions.
84
85 --show-total-period
86 Show a column with the sum of periods.
87
88 --source
89 Interleave source code with assembly code. Enabled by default,
90 disable with --no-source.
91
92 --symfs=<directory>
93 Look for files with symbols relative to this directory.
94
95 -M, --disassembler-style=
96 Set disassembler style for objdump.
97
98 --objdump=<path>
99 Path to objdump binary.
100
101 --skip-missing
102 Skip symbols that cannot be annotated.
103
104 --group
105 Show event group information together
