uftrace-info - Print tracing information for trace data

uftrace info [options] [COMMAND]

This command prints metadata recorded in the header of a given data file.

Print symbols table instead of the recorded tracing info. It will print two symbol tables - normal symbols and dynamic symbols. The normal symbols are from the executable itself, and dynamic symbols are for library calls. When COMMAND is given, it should provide symbol information which might not be available from the recorded path of `exe image' or the symbol file in the data directory.
Print task relationship in a tree form instead of the tracing info.

This command shows information like below:

$ uftrace record abc
