ovs-parse-backtrace — parses ovs-appctl backtrace output

Synopsis

ovs-appctl backtrace | ovs-parse-backtrace [binary]

ovs-parse-backtrace [binary] < backtrace

Description

In some configurations, many Open vSwitch daemons can produce a series of backtraces using the ovs-appctl backtrace command.  Users can analyze these backtraces to figure out what the given Open vSwitch daemon may be spending most of its time doing.  ovs-parse-backtrace makes this output easier to interpret.

The ovs-appctl backtrace output must be supplied on standard input.  The binary that produced the output should be supplied as the sole non-option argument.  For best results, the binary should have debug symbols.

Options

--help

Prints a usage message and exits.
