Sysprof is a sampling profiler that uses a kernel module to generate
|
|
stacktraces which are then interpreted by the userspace program
|
|
"sysprof".

Debugging symbols
|
|
|
|
- The programs and libraries you want to profile should be compiled
|
|
with -fno-omit-frame-pointer and have debugging symbols available,
|
|
or you won't get much usable information.

Building Sysprof
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
You need some packages installed. The package names may vary depending on your
|
|
distribution, the following command works on Fedora 25:
|
|
|
|
sudo dnf install gcc gcc-c++ ninja-build gtk3-devel
|
|
|
|
Then do the following:
|
|
|
|
meson --prefix=/usr build
|
|
cd build
|
|
ninja
|
|
sudo ninja install
|
|
|
|
WARNING: `ninja install` will mostly install under the configured install
|
|
prefix but installs systemd service configuration directly in the system
|
|
default location `/usr/lib/systemd` so it won't work without root privileges,
|
|
even if the install prefix is a user-owned directory.
