     kkdduummpp - display kernel trace data

DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
     KKdduummpp displays the kernel trace files produced with ktrace(1) in human
     readable format.  By default, the file _k_t_r_a_c_e_._o_u_t in the current directo-
     ry is displayed.

     The options are as follows:

     --dd          Display all numbers in decimal.

     --ff _f_i_l_e     Display the specified file instead of _k_t_r_a_c_e_._o_u_t.

     --ll          Loop reading the trace file, once the end-of-file is reached,
                 waiting for more data.

     --mm _m_a_x_d_a_t_a  Display at most _m_a_x_d_a_t_a bytes when decoding I/O.

     --nn          Suppress ad hoc translations.  Normally kkdduummpp tries to decode
                 many system calls into a more human readable format.  For ex-
                 ample, ioctl(2) values are replaced with the macro name and
                 _e_r_r_n_o values are replaced with the strerror(3) string.  Sup-
                 pressing this feature yields a more consistent output format
                 and is easily amenable to further processing.

     --RR          Display relative timestamps (time since previous entry).

     --TT          Display absolute timestamps for each entry (seconds since
                 epoch).

     --tt _c_n_i_s     See the --tt option of ktrace(1).
