7 This script parses a trace provided by the function tracer in
8 kernel/trace/trace_functions.c
9 The resulted trace is processed into a tree to produce a more human
10 view of the call stack by drawing textual but hierarchical tree of
11 calls. Only the functions's names and the the call time are provided.
13 Usage:
14 Be sure that you have CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER
15 # mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug
16 # echo function > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
17 $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe > ~/raw_trace_func
18 Wait some times but not too much, the script is a bit slow.
19 Break the pipe (Ctrl + Z)
20 $ scripts/draw_functrace.py < raw_trace_func > draw_functrace
21 Then you have your drawn trace in draw_functrace
