NAME

       trace-cmd-start - start the Ftrace Linux kernel tracer without
       recording

SYNOPSIS

       trace-cmd start [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       The trace-cmd(1) start enables all the Ftrace tracing the same way
       trace-cmd-record(1) does. The difference is that it does not run
       threads to create a trace.dat file. This is useful just to enable
       Ftrace and you are only interested in the trace after some event has
       occurred and the trace is stopped. Then the trace can be read straight
       from the Ftrace pseudo file system or can be extracted with
       trace-cmd-extract(1).

OPTIONS

       The options are the same as trace-cmd-record(1), except that it does
       not take options specific to recording (-s, -o, -F, -N, and -t).

SEE ALSO

       trace-cmd(1), trace-cmd-record(1), trace-cmd-report(1),
       trace-cmd-stop(1), trace-cmd-extract(1), trace-cmd-reset(1),
       trace-cmd-split(1), trace-cmd-list(1), trace-cmd-listen(1)
