PERF-ANNOTATE(1) perf Manual PERF-ANNOTATE(1)NAMEperf-annotate - Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display
annotated code
SYNOPSIS
perf annotate [-i <file> | --input=file] [symbol_name]
DESCRIPTION
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.
OPTIONS-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 complain, do it.
-v, --verbose
Be more verbose. (Show symbol address, etc)
-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.
--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
