perf-inject(1) - Linux man page

Name

perf-inject - Filter to augment the events stream with additional information

Synopsis

perf inject <options>

Description

perf-inject reads a perf-record event stream and repipes it to stdout. At any point the processing code can inject other events into the event stream - in this case build-ids (-b option) are read and injected as needed into the event stream.

Build-ids are just the first user of perf-inject - potentially anything that needs userspace processing to augment the events stream with additional information could make use of this facility.

Options

-b, --build-ids=

Inject build-ids into the output stream
-v, --verbose
Be more verbose.
