1perf-annotate(1) 2================ 3 4NAME 5---- 6perf-annotate - Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display annotated code 7 8SYNOPSIS 9-------- 10[verse] 11'perf annotate' [-i <file> | --input=file] [symbol_name] 12 13DESCRIPTION 14----------- 15This command reads the input file and displays an annotated version of the 16code. If the object file has debug symbols then the source code will be 17displayed alongside assembly code. 18 19If there is no debug info in the object, then annotated assembly is displayed. 20 21OPTIONS 22------- 23-i:: 24--input=:: 25 Input file name. (default: perf.data unless stdin is a fifo) 26 27-d:: 28--dsos=<dso[,dso...]>:: 29 Only consider symbols in these dsos. 30-s:: 31--symbol=<symbol>:: 32 Symbol to annotate. 33 34-f:: 35--force:: 36 Don't do ownership validation. 37 38-v:: 39--verbose:: 40 Be more verbose. (Show symbol address, etc) 41 42-q:: 43--quiet:: 44 Do not show any message. (Suppress -v) 45 46-D:: 47--dump-raw-trace:: 48 Dump raw trace in ASCII. 49 50-k:: 51--vmlinux=<file>:: 52 vmlinux pathname. 53 54-m:: 55--modules:: 56 Load module symbols. WARNING: use only with -k and LIVE kernel. 57 58-l:: 59--print-line:: 60 Print matching source lines (may be slow). 61 62-P:: 63--full-paths:: 64 Don't shorten the displayed pathnames. 65 66--stdio:: Use the stdio interface. 67 68--stdio-color:: 69 'always', 'never' or 'auto', allowing configuring color output 70 via the command line, in addition to via "color.ui" .perfconfig. 71 Use '--stdio-color always' to generate color even when redirecting 72 to a pipe or file. Using just '--stdio-color' is equivalent to 73 using 'always'. 74 75--tui:: Use the TUI interface. Use of --tui requires a tty, if one is not 76 present, as when piping to other commands, the stdio interface is 77 used. This interfaces starts by centering on the line with more 78 samples, TAB/UNTAB cycles through the lines with more samples. 79 80--gtk:: Use the GTK interface. 81 82-C:: 83--cpu:: Only report samples for the list of CPUs provided. Multiple CPUs can 84 be provided as a comma-separated list with no space: 0,1. Ranges of 85 CPUs are specified with -: 0-2. Default is to report samples on all 86 CPUs. 87 88--asm-raw:: 89 Show raw instruction encoding of assembly instructions. 90 91--source:: 92 Interleave source code with assembly code. Enabled by default, 93 disable with --no-source. 94 95--symfs=<directory>:: 96 Look for files with symbols relative to this directory. 97 98-M:: 99--disassembler-style=:: Set disassembler style for objdump. 100 101--objdump=<path>:: 102 Path to objdump binary. 103 104--skip-missing:: 105 Skip symbols that cannot be annotated. 106 107--group:: 108 Show event group information together 109 110SEE ALSO 111-------- 112linkperf:perf-record[1], linkperf:perf-report[1] 113
