From: yuzhoujian <yuzhoujian@didichuxing.com>
One can just record callchains in the kernel or user space with this new options. We can use it together with "--all-kernel" options. This two options is used just like print_stack(sys) or print_ustack(usr) for systemtap.
Show below is the usage of this new option combined with "--all-kernel" options. 1. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect kernel callchains. $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --kernel-callchains 2. Configure all used events to run in kernel space and just collect user callchains. $ perf record -a -g --all-kernel --user-callchains
