--branch-sampling-spec
--branch-sampling-spec rate
[,variation[,cpu_event[[:threshold=int[:privilege-level-mask=level]]]]
Controls the sampling of the branch trace buffer (BTB)/execution trace buffer (ETB),
which produces the statistical call graph. This option is used only with the scgprof
measurement.
The default sampling of the BTB is:
branch_sampling_spec "1000, 5%, BRANCH_EVENT"
The default sampling of the ETB is:
branch_sampling_spec "1000, 5%, ETB_EVENT"
which means that every 1000 BRANCH_EVENT CPU events (on the Integrity servers
Itanium 2) and ETB_EVENT CPU events (on the Integrity servers dual-core Itanium 2
and Itanium 9300 quad-core processors) are sampled, using a 5% variation value.
Use this option to change the default.
rate
Specifies how many sampling events should
occur between samples.
The default value is 1,000 events.
