NAME         top

       callgrind_annotate - post-processing tool for the Callgrind

SYNOPSIS         top


       callgrind_annotate [options]
                          [callgrind-out-file [source-files...]]

DESCRIPTION         top

       callgrind_annotate takes an output file produced by the Valgrind
       tool Callgrind and prints the information in an easy-to-read
       form.

OPTIONS         top

       -h --help
           Show summary of options.

       --version
           Show version of callgrind_annotate.

       --show=A,B,C [default: all]
           Only show figures for events A,B,C.

       --threshold=<0--100> [default: 99%]
           Percentage of counts (of primary sort event) we are
           interested in.

           callgrind_annotate stops printing functions when the sum of
           the cost percentage of the printed functions is bigger or
           equal to the given threshold percentage.

       --sort=A,B,C
           Sort columns by events A,B,C [event column order].

           Optionally, each event is followed by a : and a threshold, to
           specify different thresholds depending on the event.

           callgrind_annotate stops printing functions when the sum of
           the cost percentage of the printed functions for all the
           events is bigger or equal to the given event threshold
           percentages.

           When one or more thresholds are given via this option, the
           value of --threshold is ignored.

       --show-percs=<no|yes> [default: no]
           When enabled, a percentage is printed next to all event
           counts. This helps gauge the relative importance of each
           function and line.

       --auto=<yes|no> [default: yes]
           Annotate all source files containing functions that helped
           reach the event count threshold.

       --context=N [default: 8]
           Print N lines of context before and after annotated lines.

       --inclusive=<yes|no> [default: no]
           Add subroutine costs to functions calls.

       --tree=<none|caller|calling|both> [default: none]
           Print for each function their callers, the called functions
           or both.

       -I, --include=<dir>
           Add dir to the list of directories to search for source
           files.
