The view you are talking about, the control flow view, needs events about irqs, scheduling, system calls, traps, softirqs, process creation and destruction. This information is available in the default kernel instrumentation. So yes, you need a kernel trace to have the events that permit the drawing of content in this view. For the userspace tracer, it would be hard and inefficient to get all this information. The UST is rather used for tracing events inside userspace code. Of course you can record both a kernel and userspace trace simultaneously, open both in lttv and get all the information. > > Thank you, > Thirumalai > > **************** CAUTION - Disclaimer *****************This email may contain > confidential and privileged material for the > sole use of the intended recipient(s).
