==============

NAME
----
perf-record - Run a command and record its profile into perf.data

SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'perf record' [-e <EVENT> | --event=EVENT] [-l] [-a] <command>
'perf record' [-e <EVENT> | --event=EVENT] [-l] [-a] -- <command> [<options>]

DESCRIPTION
-----------
This command runs a command and gathers a performance counter profile
from it, into perf.data - without displaying anything.

This file can then be inspected later on, using 'perf report'.


OPTIONS
-------
<command>...::
	Any command you can specify in a shell.

-e::
--event=::
	Select the PMU event. Selection can be a symbolic event name
	(use 'perf list' to list all events) or a raw PMU
	event (eventsel+umask) in the form of rNNN where NNN is a
	hexadecimal event descriptor.

-a::
        System-wide collection.

-l::
        Scale counter values.

-p::
--pid=::
	Record events on existing pid.

-r::
--realtime=::
	Collect data with this RT SCHED_FIFO priority.
-A::
--append::
	Append to the output file to do incremental profiling.

-f::
--force::
	Overwrite existing data file.

-c::
--count=::
	Event period to sample.

-o::
--output=::
	Output file name.

-i::
--inherit::
	Child tasks inherit counters.
-F::
--freq=::
	Profile at this frequency.

-m::
--mmap-pages=::
	Number of mmap data pages.

-g::
--call-graph::
	Do call-graph (stack chain/backtrace) recording.

-v::
--verbose::
	Be more verbose (show counter open errors, etc).

-s::
--stat::
	Per thread counts.

-d::
--data::
	Sample addresses.

-n::
--no-samples::
	Don't sample.
