ovs-parse-backtrace(8) Open vSwitch Manual ovs-parse-backtrace(8)
NAME
ovs-parse-backtrace - parses ovs-appctl backtrace output
SYNOPSIS
ovs-appctl backtrace | ovs-parse-backtrace [binary]
ovs-parse-backtrace [binary] backtrace
DESCRIPTION
In some configurations, many Open vSwitch daemons can produce a series
of backtraces using the ovs-appctl backtrace command. Users can ana‐
lyze these backtraces to figure out what the given Open vSwitch daemon
may be spending most of its time doing. ovs-parse-backtrace makes this
output easier to interpret.
The ovs-appctl backtrace output must be supplied on standard input.
The binary that produced the output should be supplied as the sole non-
option argument. For best results, the binary should have debug sym‐
bols.
OPTIONS
--help Prints a usage message and exits.
--version Prints the version and exits.
