perf-annotate - Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display annotated code
perf annotate [-i <file> | --input=file] [symbol_name]
This command reads the input file and displays an annotated version of the code. If the object file has debug symbols then the source code will be displayed alongside assembly code. If there is no debug info in the object, then annotated assembly is displayed.
-i, --input= Input file name. (default: perf.data unless stdin is a fifo) -d, --dsos=<dso[,dso...]> Only consider symbols in these dsos. -s, --symbol=<symbol> Symbol to annotate. -f, --force Don’t do ownership validation. -v, --verbose Be more verbose. (Show symbol address, etc) -q, --quiet Do not show any message. (Suppress -v) -D, --dump-raw-trace Dump raw trace in ASCII. -k, --vmlinux=<file> vmlinux pathname. -m, --modules Load module symbols. WARNING: use only with -k and LIVE kernel. -l, --print-line Print matching source lines (may be slow). -P, --full-paths Don’t shorten the displayed pathnames. --stdio Use the stdio interface. --stdio-color always, never or auto, allowing configuring color output via the command line, in addition to via "color.ui" .perfconfig. Use --stdio-color always to generate color even when redirecting to a pipe or file. Using just --stdio-color is equivalent to using always. --tui Use the TUI interface. Use of --tui requires a tty, if one is not present, as when piping to other commands, the stdio interface is used. This interfaces starts by centering on the line with more samples, TAB/UNTAB cycles through the lines with more samples. --gtk Use the GTK interface. -C, --cpu Only report samples for the list of CPUs provided. Multiple CPUs can be provided as a comma-separated list with no space: 0,1. Ranges of CPUs are specified with -: 0-2. Default is to report samples on all CPUs. --asm-raw Show raw instruction encoding of assembly instructions. --source Interleave source code with assembly code. Enabled by default, disable with --no-source. --symfs=<directory> Look for files with symbols relative to this directory. -M, --disassembler-style= Set disassembler style for objdump. --objdump=<path> Path to objdump binary. --skip-missing Skip symbols that cannot be annotated. --group Show event group information together
