! 39: .Nm kdump
! 40: .Nd display kernel trace data
! 41: .Sh SYNOPSIS
! 42: .Nm kdump
! 43: .Op Fl dnlRT
! 44: .Op Fl e Ar emulation
! 45: .Op Fl f Ar file
! 46: .Op Fl m Ar maxdata

! 48: .Sh DESCRIPTION
! 49: .Nm Kdump
! 50: displays the kernel trace files produced with
! 51: .Xr ktrace 1
! 52: in human readable format.
! 53: By default, the file
! 54: .Pa ktrace.out
! 55: in the current directory is displayed.
! 56: .Pp
! 57: The options are as follows:
! 58: .Bl -tag -width Fl
! 59: .It Fl d
! 60: Display all numbers in decimal.
! 61: .It Fl e Ar emulation
! 62: Interpret system call maps assuming the named emulation instead of "netbsd".
! 63: .It Fl f Ar file
! 64: Display the specified file instead of
! 65: .Pa ktrace.out .
! 66: .It Fl l
! 67: Loop reading the trace file, once the end-of-file is reached, waiting for
! 68: more data.
! 69: .It Fl m Ar maxdata
! 70: Display at most
! 71: .Ar maxdata
! 72: bytes when decoding
! 73: .Tn I/O .
! 74: .It Fl n
! 75: Suppress ad hoc translations.
! 76: Normally
! 77: .Nm kdump
! 78: tries to decode many system calls into a more human readable format.
! 79: For example,
! 80: .Xr ioctl 2
! 81: values are replaced with the macro name and
! 82: .Va errno
! 83: values are replaced with the
! 84: .Xr strerror 3
! 85: string.
! 86: Suppressing this feature yields a more consistent output format and is
! 87: easily amenable to further processing.
! 88: .It Fl R
! 89: Display relative timestamps (time since previous entry).
! 90: .It Fl T
! 91: Display absolute timestamps for each entry (seconds since epoch).
! 92: .It Fl t Ar cnis
! 93: See the
! 94: .Fl t
! 95: option of
! 96: .Xr ktrace 1 .
