3.10. Latency Tracing Using trace-cmd

trace-cmd is a front-end tool to ftrace. It can enable the ftrace interactions described earlier without needing to write into the /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/ directory. It can be installed without the special tracing kernel variants, and it does not add any overhead when it is installed.
  1. To install the trace-cmd tool, enter the following command as root: 
    ~]# yum install trace-cmd
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
  2. To start the utility, type trace-cmd at the shell prompt, along with the options you require, using the following syntax: 
    ~]# trace-cmd commandtrace-cmd command
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
    Some examples of commands are: 
    • ~]# trace-cmd record -p function myapptrace-cmd record -p function myapp
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
      Enable and start recording functions executing within the kernel while myapp runs. It records functions from all CPUS and all tasks, even those not related to myapp. 
    • ~]# trace-cmd report
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
      Display the result. 
    • ~]# trace-cmd record -p function -l 'sched*' myapptrace-cmd record -p function -l 'sched*' myapp
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
      Record only functions that start with sched while myapp runs. 
    • ~]# trace-cmd start -e irq
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
      Enable all the IRQ events. 
    • ~]# trace-cmd start -p wakeup_rt
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
      Start the wakeup_rt tracer. 
    • ~]# trace-cmd start -p preemptirqsoff -d
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
      Start the preemptirqsoff tracer but disable function tracing in doing so. Note: the version of trace-cmd in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 turns off ftrace_enabled instead of using the function-trace option. You can enable it again with trace-cmd start -p function. 
    • ~]# trace-cmd start -p nop
      Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
      Restore the state in which the system was before trace-cmd started modifying it. This is important if you want to use the debugfs file system after using trace-cmd, whether or not the system was restarted in the meantime.

    Note

    See the trace-cmd(1) man page for a complete list of commands and options. All the individual commands also have their own man pages, trace-cmd-command. For further information about event tracing and function tracer, see Appendix A, Event Tracing and Appendix B, Detailed Description of Ftrace.
  3. In this example, the trace-cmd utility will trace a single trace point: 
    ~]# trace-cmd record -e sched_wakeup ls /bin
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
