NAME
uftrace-report - Print statistics and summary for trace data
SYNOPSIS
uftrace report [options]
DESCRIPTION
This command collects trace data from a given data file and prints statistics and summary information.
It shows function statistics by default, but can show thread statistics with the --threads option and
show differences between traces with the --diff option.
OPTIONS
--threads
Report thread summary information rather than function statistics.
-s KEYS[,KEYS,...], --sort=KEYS[,KEYS,...]
Sort functions by given KEYS. Multiple KEYS can be given, separated by comma (,). Possible keys
are total (time), self (time), call, avg, min, max, func. Note that the first 3 keys should be
used when neither of --avg-total nor --avg-self is used. Likewise, the last 3 keys should be used
when either of those options is used.
--avg-total
Show average, min, max of each function's total time.
--avg-self
Show average, min, max of each function's self time.
--diff=DATA
Report differences between the input trace data and the given DATA.
-k, --kernel
Show kernel functions as well as user functions. Only kernel functions called inside user func‐
tions will be shown. Note that this option is set by default and always shows kernel functions if
exist.
--kernel-full
Show all kernel functions, including those called outside of user functions.
--kernel-only
Show kernel functions only (without user functions).
-F FUNC, --filter=FUNC
Set filter to trace selected functions only. This option can be used more than once. See uf‐
trace-replay(1) for an explanation of filters.
-N FUNC, --notrace=FUNC
Set filter not to trace selected functions (or the functions called underneath them). This option
can be used more than once. See uftrace-replay(1) for an explanation of filters.
-T TRG, --trigger=TRG
Set trigger on selected functions. This option can be used more than once. See uftrace-replay(1)
for an explanation of triggers.
-t TIME, --time-filter=TIME
Do not account functions which run under the time threshold. If some functions explicitly have
the 'trace' trigger applied, those are always accounted regardless of execution time.
--tid=TID[,TID,...]
Only print functions called by the given threads. To see the list of threads in the data file,
you can use uftrace report --threads or uftrace info. This option can also be used more than
once.
-D DEPTH, --depth DEPTH
Set trace limit in nesting level.
-r RANGE, --time-range=RANGE
Only show functions executed within the time RANGE. The RANGE can be <start>~<stop> (separated by
"~") and one of <start> and <stop> can be omitted. The <start> and <stop> are timestamp or
elapsed time if they have <time_unit> postfix, for example '100us'. The timestamp or elapsed time
can be shown with -f time or -f elapsed option respectively in uftrace replay(1).
--diff-policy=POLICY
Apply custom diff policy. Available values are: "abs", "no-abs", "percent", "no-percent", "com‐
pact" and "full". The "abs" is to sort diff result using absolute value so positvie and negative
entries can be shown together while "no-abs" will show positive entries first and then negative
ones. The "percent" is to show diff in percentage while "no-percent" is to show the values. The
"full" is to show all three columns of baseline, new data and difference while "compact" only
shows the difference. The default is "abs", "compact" and "no-percent".
--sort-column=IDX
When --diff is used with "full" policy, 3 columns will be shown for each total time, self time and
call count. This option selects the index of the column to be used as a sort key. Index 0 is for
original data given by the --data option, index 1 is for data given by the --diff option, and in‐
dex 2 is for (percentage) differences between the two data.
--event-full
Show all (user) events outside of user functions.
--demangle=TYPE
Use demangled C++ symbol names for filters, triggers, arguments and/or return values. Possible
values are "full", "simple" and "no". Default is "simple" which ignores function arguments and
template parameters.
EXAMPLE
This command shows information like the following:
$ uftrace record abc
$ uftrace report

$ uftrace report --threads

===== ========== ========== =========================
21959 178.118 us 6 main
To see a difference between two data:
$ uftrace record abc
$ uftrace report --diff uftrace.data.old
#
# uftrace diff
# [0] base: uftrace.data (from uftrace record abc )
# [1] diff: uftrace.data.old (from uftrace record abc )
#
Total time Self time Calls Function
========== ========== ========== ====================
-0.301 us -0.038 us +0 main
-0.263 us -0.070 us +0 a
-0.193 us -0.042 us +0 b
-0.151 us -0.090 us +0 c
-0.131 us -0.131 us +0 __cxa_atexit
-0.061 us -0.061 us +0 getpid
The above example shows difference sorted by absolute value of total time. The following changes it to
use (non-absolute) value of self time.
$ uftrace report --diff uftrace.data.old -s self --diff-policy no-abs
#
# uftrace diff
# [0] base: uftrace.data (from uftrace record abc )
# [1] diff: uftrace.data.old (from uftrace record abc )
#
Total time Self time Calls Function
========== ========== ========== ====================
-0.301 us -0.038 us +0 main
-0.193 us -0.042 us +0 b
-0.061 us -0.061 us +0 getpid
-0.263 us -0.070 us +0 a
-0.151 us -0.090 us +0 c
-0.131 us -0.131 us +0 __cxa_atexit
By using "full" policy, user can see raw data as well like below. Also it's possible to sort by differ‐
ent column (for raw data). The example below will sort output by total time of the base data.
$ uftrace report --diff uftrace.data.old --sort-column 0 --diff-policy full,percent
#
# uftrace diff
# [0] base: uftrace.data (from uftrace record abc )
# [1] diff: uftrace.data.old (from uftrace record abc )
#
