| perf (sometimes "Perf Events" or perf tools, originally |
| "Performance Counters for Linux") - is a performance |
| analyzing tool in Linux, available from kernel version |
| 2.6.31. User-space controlling utility, called 'perf' has |
| git-like interface with subcommands. It is capable of |
| statistical profiling of entire system (both kernel and user |
| code), single CPU or severals threads. |
| |
| This will build and install the userspace 'perf' |
| command. |
| |
| Your kernel must have CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS enabled to use perf |
| profiling. Buildroot automatically enables this in the kernel |
| configuration. |
