TRACE-CMD-MEM(1) libtracefs Manual TRACE-CMD-MEM(1)
trace-cmd-mem - show memory usage of certain kmem events
trace-cmd mem [OPTIONS][input-file]
The trace-cmd(1) mem requires a trace-cmd record that enabled the following events: kmalloc kmalloc_node kfree kmem_cache_alloc kmem_cache_alloc_node kmem_cache_alloc_free It then reads the amount requested and the ammount freed as well as the functions that called the allocation. It then reports the final amount of bytes requested and allocated, along with the total amount allocated and requested, as well as the max allocation and requested during the run. It reports the amount of wasted bytes (allocated - requested) that was not freed, as well as the max wasted amount during the run. The list is sorted by descending order of wasted bytes after the run.

-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.
