SSORDER(1)                                                          SSORDER(1)



NAME
     ssorder - compute and write cord feedback files from working set data

SYNOPSIS
     ssorder -wsl <working-set-list-file> [-gray|-weight] -o <output-
     feedback-file> <a.out or DSO>

INTRODUCTION
     ssorder is a tool designed to allow generation of a cord feedback file
     from the executable or DSO and a list of working set files, and weights,
     derived from measurements.

     ssorder is a command-line version of sscord; it generates identical
     feedback files, but can be run from a script.  The theory and strategy
     for the computations involved is described in the man page for sscord(1),
     q.v.

DESCRIPTION
     ssorder reads a working-set list file specified by the -wsl argument, and
     generates a cord feedback file written to the file given by its -o
     argument (or to stdout, if none is given).

COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS
     ssorder accepts the following command-line options:

     -o outfile
          specifies the name of the output file to be written with feedback
          information.  If the file exists, ssorder will exit with an error
          message.  If this option is not provided, ssorder will write the
          feedback to stdout.

     -wsl fileset
          specifies a single text file name as input; the working set list
          will consist of the working-set files whose names appear in the
          input file.  Each file name should be on a single line.

     -gray
          specifies that gray-code ordering should be computed (default).

     -weight
          specifies that weighted-affinity ordering should be computed.

     -v[erbose]
          specifies that additional informational output should be generated.
          It is equivalent to setting the environment variable
          _SPEEDSHOP_VERBOSE to an empty string.

     -V   specifies that even more additional informational output should be
          generated.  It is equivalent to setting the environment variable
          _SPEEDSHOP_VERBOSE to a non-empty string.
