It has higher priority 41 than buildid.dir config file option. 42 43--list-cmds:: 44 List the most commonly used perf commands. 45 46--list-opts:: 47 List available perf options. 48 49--debugfs-dir:: 50 Set debugfs directory or set environment variable PERF_DEBUGFS_DIR. 51 52--debug:: 53 Setup debug variable (see list below) in value 54 range (0, 10). Use like: 55 --debug verbose # sets verbose = 1 56 --debug verbose=2 # sets verbose = 2 57 58 List of debug variables allowed to set: 59 verbose - general debug messages 60 ordered-events - ordered events object debug messages 61 data-convert - data convert command debug messages 62 stderr - write debug output (option -v) to stderr 63 in browser mode 64 perf-event-open - Print perf_event_open() arguments and 65 return value 66 67DESCRIPTION 68----------- 69Performance counters for Linux are a new kernel-based subsystem 70that provide a framework for all things performance analysis. It 71covers hardware level (CPU/PMU, Performance Monitoring Unit) features 72and software features (software counters, tracepoints) as well. 73 74SEE ALSO 75-------- 76linkperf:perf-stat[1], linkperf:perf-top[1], 77linkperf:perf-record[1], linkperf:perf-report[1], 78linkperf:perf-list[1] 79 80linkperf:perf-annotate[1],linkperf:perf-archive[1],linkperf:perf-arm-spe[1], 81linkperf:perf-bench[1], linkperf:perf-buildid-cache[1], 82linkperf:perf-buildid-list[1], linkperf:perf-c2c[1], 83linkperf:perf-config[1], linkperf:perf-data[1], linkperf:perf-diff[1], 84linkperf:perf-evlist[1], linkperf:perf-ftrace[1], 85linkperf:perf-help[1], linkperf:perf-inject[1], 86linkperf:perf-intel-pt[1], linkperf:perf-iostat[1], linkperf:perf-kallsyms[1], 87linkperf:perf-kmem[1], linkperf:perf-kvm[1], linkperf:perf-lock[1], 88linkperf:perf-mem[1], linkperf:perf-probe[1], linkperf:perf-sched[1], 89linkperf:perf-script[1], linkperf:perf-test[1], 90linkperf:perf-trace[1], linkperf:perf-version[1]
