From 7bec7a9134c25cecb0d7029199b59f7b1bef35b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2009 19:01:22 -0300 Subject: perf report: Add --symbols parameter So that we can filter by symbol name. The 'pfunct' utility in the 'dwarves' package can be used to create a file with the functions one wants. Example: [acme@doppio pahole]$ pfunct /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so.debug | grep dwarf > /tmp/dwarf.symbols [acme@doppio pahole]$ wc -l /tmp/dwarf.symbols 93 /tmp/dwarf.symbols [acme@doppio pahole]$ head -3 /tmp/dwarf.symbols dwfl_addrdwarf dwfl_module_getdwarf dwfl_getdwarf [acme@doppio pahole]$ perf report --sort comm,dso,symbol --comms pahole --dsos /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so --symbols file:///tmp/dwarf.symbols 33.99% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_tag 29.07% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_decl_file 27.71% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_getsrclines 4.54% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so 0x00000000007400 3.93% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_decl_line 0.46% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_getlocation 0.18% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] __libdwarf_next_prime 0.13% pahole /usr/lib64/libdw-0.141.so [.] dwarf_diecu [acme@doppio pahole]$ Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Peter Zijlstra Cc: Paul Mackerras LKML-Reference: <1246399282-20934-4-git-send-email-acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- tools/perf/Documentation/perf-report.txt | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'tools/perf/Documentation') diff --git a/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-report.txt b/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-report.txt index 4c44ef1..8aa3f8c 100644 --- a/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-report.txt +++ b/tools/perf/Documentation/perf-report.txt @@ -28,6 +28,10 @@ OPTIONS --comms=:: Only consider symbols in these comms.
