With no options, it prints a histogram of the locations -in the code that were sampled during execution. - -Since it is a real-time profiler, unlike a traditional profiler it samples -the program's state even when it is not running, such as when it is -asleep or waiting for I/O. Each thread contributes equally to the -statistics. - - -Usage: prof -p pid [-t total_secs] [-d delta_msec] [6.out args ...] - -The output modes (default -h) are: - - -P file.prof: - Write the profile information to file.prof, in the format used by pprof. - At the moment, this only works on Linux amd64 binaries and requires that the - binary be written using 6l -e to produce ELF debug info. - See http://code.google.com/p/google-perftools for details. - -h: histograms - How many times a sample occurred at each location. - -f: dynamic functions - At each sample period, print the name of the executing function. - -l: dynamic file and line numbers - At each sample period, print the file and line number of the executing instruction. - -r: dynamic registers - At each sample period, print the register contents. - -s: dynamic function stack traces - At each sample period, print the symbolic stack trace. - -Flag -t sets the maximum real time to sample, in seconds, and -d -sets the sampling interval in milliseconds. The default is to sample -every 100ms until the program completes. - -For reasons of disambiguation it is installed as 6prof although it also serves -as an 8prof and a 5prof. - -*/ -package documentation |
