NAME

getsyspr − read tables from kernel profiler

SYNOPSIS

getsyspr [ −incr ] [ outfile ]

DESCRIPTION

Getsyspr reads the table produced by the kernel profiler from /dev/kmem.  It produces a file, mon.out, which is in the format of the mon.out file produced by monitor(3). This file is intended to be used with prof(1) to interpret the system profile.

If outfile is specified, getsyspr saves its output in that instead of in mon.out. 

If incr is specified and numeric, getsyspr will report statistics only for the last incr minutes.  If it is non-numeric, it is interpreted as the name of a file previously output by getsyspr; only the difference between the current statistics and those reported in that file are output.

FILES

/dev/kmem

SEE ALSO

prof(1), sysprof(1), monitor(3)

BUGS

This program only works if kernel profiling is enabled in the kernel currently being run.  This is not normally the case.
