NAME

6       trace-cmd-check-events - parse the event formats on local system
7

SYNOPSIS

9       trace-cmd check-events [OPTIONS]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The trace-cmd(1) check-events parses format strings for all the events
13       on the local system. It returns whether all the format strings can be
14       parsed correctly. It will load plugins unless specified otherwise.
15
16       This is useful to check for any trace event format strings which may
17       contain some internal kernel function references which cannot be
18       decoded outside of the kernel. This may mean that either the unparsed
19       format strings of the trace events need to be changed or that a plugin
20       needs to be created to parse them.
21

OPTIONS

23       -N - Don’t load plugins
24
