NAME

opannotate - produce source or assembly annotated with profile data  

SYNOPSIS


opannotate [ options ] [profile specification]  

DESCRIPTION

opannotate outputs annotated source and/or assembly from profile data of an OProfile session. See oprofile(1) for how to write profile specifications.

 

OPTIONS

--assembly / -a
Output annotated assembly. If this is combined with --source, then mixed source / assembly annotations are output.
--demangle / -D none|smart|normal
none: no demangling. normal: use default demangler (default) smart: use pattern-matching to make C++ symbol demangling more readable.
--exclude-dependent / -x
Do not include application-specific images for libraries, kernel modules and the kernel. This option only makes sense if the profile session used --separate.
--exclude-file [files]
Exclude all files in the given comma-separated list of glob patterns.
--exclude-symbols / -e [symbols]
Exclude all the symbols in the given comma-separated list.
--help / -? / --usage
Show help message.
--image-path / -p [paths]
Comma-separated list of additional paths to search for binaries. This is needed to find modules in kernels 2.6 and upwards.
--root / -R [path]
A path to a filesystem to search for additional binaries.
--include-file [files]
Only include files in the given comma-separated list of glob patterns.
--include-symbols / -i [symbols]
Only include symbols in the given comma-separated list.
--objdump-params [params]
Pass the given parameters as extra values when calling objdump.
--output-dir / -o [dir]
Output directory. This makes opannotate output one annotated file for each source file. This option can't be used in conjunction with --assembly.
--search-dirs / -d [paths]
Comma-separated list of paths to search for source files. You may need to use this option when the debug information for an image contains relative paths.
--base-dirs / -b [paths]
Comma-separated list of paths to strip from debug source files, prior to looking for them in --search-dirs.
--session-dir=dir_path
Use sample database out of directory dir_path instead of the default location (/var/lib/oprofile).
--source / -s
Output annotated source. This requires debugging information to be available for the binaries.
--threshold / -t [percentage]
Only output data for symbols that have more than the given percentage of total samples.
--verbose / -V [options]
Give verbose debugging output.
--version / -v
Show version.

 

ENVIRONMENT
