NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     ssdump - print out	the contents of	SpeedShop performance experiment data
     files

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     ssdump [ options ]	{name1 ... nameN } ...

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     ssdump prints out the formatted contents of one or	more SpeedShop
     performance experiment data files.	 Each of the files consists of a
     string of "beads",	or count-key-data records.

     If	any of the named files contain beads indicating	additional data	files,
     from descendant processes of the original run, those files	will also be
     dumped.

     Options are used to control the printing of the files.

     -d	  Print	detailed information for each bead.  For compressed beads, the
	  compressed form will be dumped.

     -D	  Print	detailed information for each bead.  For compressed beads, the
	  uncompressed form will be dumped.  If	both -D	and -d are given, both
	  forms	will be	printed	for compressed beads, but only one copy	will
	  be printed for beads that are	not recorded in	compressed form.

     -h	  Print	out the	hex contents of	the body of each bead.

     -q	  Suppress printing of those fields that will normally change from run
	  to run.  Such	fields contain,	for example, process pid's, time
	  stamps, and so forth.	 This option is	used for QA work, to better
	  enable automatic comparisons of recorded experiments.

     -s	<offset>
	  Print	only one bead at the given offset into the file.

     -i	<index>
	  Print	only one bead at the given index in the	file.
