NAME¶

SYNOPSIS¶

DESCRIPTION¶

OPTIONS¶

--debug

Show hex dump of data as well

--chrome

Show JSON style output as used by the Google Chrome tracing facility.

--flame-graph

Show FlameGraph style output (svg) viewable by modern web browsers.

-k, --kernel

Dump kernel functions as well as user functions. Note that this option is set by default and always shows kernel functions if exist.

--kernel-only

Dump kernel functions only (without user functions).

--kernel-full

Show all kernel functions called outside of user functions. This option is the inverse of --kernel-skip-out. This option is only meaningful when used with --chrome or --flame-graph options.

-F FUNC, --filter=FUNC

Set filter to trace selected functions only. This option can be used more than once. See uftrace-replay(1) for an explanation of filters.

-N FUNC, --notrace=FUNC

Set filter not to trace selected functions (or the functions called underneath them). This option can be used more than once. See uftrace-replay(1) for an explanation of filters.

-T TRG, --trigger=TRG

Set trigger on selected functions. This option can be used more than once. See uftrace-replay(1) for an explanation of triggers.

-t TIME, --time-filter=TIME

Do not show functions which run under the time threshold. If some functions explicitly have the `trace' trigger applied, those are always traced regardless of execution time.

--tid=TID[,TID,...]

Only print functions called by the given threads. To see the list of threads in the data file, you can use uftrace report --threads or uftrace info. This option can also be used more than once.

-D DEPTH, --depth DEPTH

Set trace limit in nesting level.

--sample-time=TIME

Apply sampling time when generating output for the flamegraph. By default it uses the number of calls for each function. When this option is used it simulates sampling by counting execution time at the given unit. So functions which ran less than the sampling time will be removed from the output but functions longer than the time will be shown as larger.

-r RANGE, --time-range=RANGE

Only show functions executed within the time RANGE. The RANGE can be <start>~<stop> (separated by “~”) and one of <start> and <stop> can be omitted. The <start> and <stop> are timestamp or elapsed time if they have <time_unit> postfix, for example `100us'. The timestamp or elapsed time can be shown with -f time or -f elapsed option respectively in uftrace replay(1).

--event-full

Show all (user) events outside of user functions. This option is only meaningful when used with --chrome or --flame-graph options.

--no-event

Do not show any events.

--demangle=TYPE

Use demangled C++ symbol names for filters, triggers, arguments and/or return values. Possible values are “full”, “simple” and “no”. Default is “simple” which ignores function arguments and template parameters.

–match=TYPE

Use pattern match using TYPE. Possible types are regex and glob. Default is regex.
