HP UX Caliper Software manual Join, Jre, Kernel-path, Kernel-stack

Causes HP Caliper to collect data for inline functions.

The default value is --noinlines.

You can use this option with the following measurements: alat, branch, cgprof, dcache, dtlb, fprof, fcount, icache, itlb, and scgprof.

For the cgprof and fcount measurements, this option should be specified during data collection as well as reporting, because the inline functions must be instrumented at collection time for the data to be available at report time. For the other measurements, this option needs to be specified only during reporting (though it can also be specified during data collection).

In reports, entries for inline functions are preceded with the following: { inline }. This notation is particularly useful if a particular function is called both inline and not inline. (There is no special notation for the function when it is not called inline.)

To obtain information regarding inline functions that HP Caliper can use, you must compile your program with -gand the optimization level should not exceed +O1.

--join

The --joinoption is deprecated. Instead, you should use the caliper report merge diff command. See “Creating Reports from Multiple Databases” (page 114).

--jre

--jre path

Specifies the JRE path to be used when invoking the local GUI client. This option is used only with the caliper -gcommand.

HP Caliper searches for the JRE in this order:

1.Path specified by the --jrepath option

2. Path specified by the JAVA_HOME environment variable

3.Path specified by the PATH environment variable

--kernel-path

--kernel-path path

When using the --event-defaultsoption with the privilege-level-maskset to kernel or all, specifies the path to the kernel file you want HP Caliper to use for symbol lookup and disassembly.

By default, HP Caliper uses this kernel file for symbol lookup and disassembly:

•/stand/current/vmunix

NOTE: On Linux, a default kernel path is not defined for a sampling level of kernel or all, so reports show only kernel module and function information for samples. To show disassembled instructions for kernel modules, use the –-kernel-pathoption.

To produce an uncompressed kernel image for HP Caliper to work with, do the following:

TMP_FILE=path_to_use_for_kernel_image gunzip -c /boot/efi/.../vmlinuz > $TMP_FILE

caliper ... --kernel-path $TMP_FILE

--kernel-stack

--kernel-stack TrueFalse

--join 63
