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.
|
|
|
|
|
2013-09-29 03:13:01 +08:00
|
|
|
This is a live mode tool in addition to working with perf.data files like
|
|
|
|
the other perf tools. Files can be generated using the 'perf record' command
|
|
|
|
but the session needs to include the raw_syscalls events (-e 'raw_syscalls:*').
|
|
|
|
Alernatively, the 'perf trace record' can be used as a shortcut to
|
|
|
|
automatically include the raw_syscalls events when writing events to a file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following options apply to perf trace; options to perf trace record are
|
|
|
|
found in the perf record man page.

-F=[all|min|maj]::

|
|
|
|
Trace pagefaults. Optionally, you can specify whether you want minor,
|
|
|
|
major or all pagefaults. Default value is maj.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
PAGEFAULTS
|
|
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When tracing pagefaults, the format of the trace is as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<min|maj>fault [<ip.symbol>+<ip.offset>] => <addr.dso@addr.offset> (<map type><addr level>).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- min/maj indicates whether fault event is minor or major;
|
|
|
|
- ip.symbol shows symbol for instruction pointer (the code that generated the
|
|
|
|
fault); if no debug symbols available, perf trace will print raw IP;
|
|
|
|
- addr.dso shows DSO for the faulted address;
|
|
|
|
- map type is either 'd' for non-executable maps or 'x' for executable maps;
|
|
|
|
- addr level is either 'k' for kernel dso or '.' for user dso.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For symbols resolution you may need to install debugging symbols.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please be aware that duration is currently always 0 and doesn't reflect actual
|
|
|
|
time it took for fault to be handled!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When --verbose specified, perf trace tries to print all available information
|
|
|
|
for both IP and fault address in the form of dso@symbol+offset.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLES
|
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Trace syscalls, major and minor pagefaults:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ perf trace -F all
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1416.547 ( 0.000 ms): python/20235 majfault [CRYPTO_push_info_+0x0] => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0@0x61be0 (x.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As you can see, there was major pagefault in python process, from
|
|
|
|
CRYPTO_push_info_ routine which faulted somewhere in libcrypto.so.
