SYNOPSISsrf_info [-l bitmap] srf_archive ...
DESCRIPTIONsrf_info lists some simple frequency metrics on the contents of an SRF
file, both in terms of how many traces there are and the sort of data
held within them.
For efficiencies sake some control is given over which statistics to
gather and display. This is controlled by the -l level parameter. The
value is the summation of one or more of the following values, repre‐
senting the data to display.
1 Count of good/bad reads.
2 Counts and compressed size for selected chunk types.
4 Trace count and trace name prefix for each trace_header.
8 Base count.
OPTIONS-l bitmap
Controls which statistics to gather and display. Bitmap is a
value from 0 to 15 (1+2+4+8) as described in the DESCRIPTION
section above.
EXAMPLES
To count the total number of good and bad reads along with a break down
of trace names per SRF data-block-header we would use bitmap values 1
and 4 combined.
srf_info-l 5 foo.srf
To count the total number of reads for all srf files in a directory.
srf_info-l 1 *.srf
