TRACE-CMD-HIST(1)           libtracefs Manual          TRACE-CMD-HIST(1)

NAME         top

       trace-cmd-hist - show histogram of events in trace.dat file

SYNOPSIS         top

       trace-cmd hist [OPTIONS][input-file]

DESCRIPTION         top

       The trace-cmd(1) hist displays a histogram form from the
       trace.dat file. Instead of showing the events as they were
       ordered, it creates a histogram that can be displayed per task or
       for all tasks where the most common events appear first. It uses
       the function tracer and call stacks that it finds to try to put
       together a call graph of the events.

OPTIONS         top

       -i input-file
           By default, trace-cmd hist will read the file trace.dat. But
           the -i option open up the given input-file instead. Note, the
           input file may also be specified as the last item on the
           command line.

       -P
           To compact all events and show the call graphs by ignoring
           tasks and different PIDs, add the -P to do so. Instead of
           showing the task name, it will group all chains together and
           show "<all pids>".
