Advise Options
The command line options which affect advise-only runs are:
--advice-classes=
[all]|[[general][:cpu][:memory
][:io][:system]]
Specifies which classes of advice to report (default:
all). Every piece of advice is classified by which
performance area it apples to.
Specify one or more of
general for general advice,
cpu for advice related to basic instruction execu-
tion,
memory for memory-related information,
io for input-output performance issues, and/or sys-
tem
for advice about items such as system calls. Only advice in the selected classes will be printed.
--advice-cutoff=
MIN_INDEX[,MIN_COUNT[,MAX_COUNT]]
Specifies how much advice to report. Each bit of advice has an index value reflecting its relative
importance.
Advice is sorted with the most important items first and the list stops when the index value of an item
is below MIN_INDEX (default: 5.0) or MAX_COUNT (default: 15) items have been printed.
The MIN_COUNT (default: 5) argument sets the minimum amount of advice to report regardless of
the setting for MIN_INDEX.
--advice-details=
[all]|[[description ][:improvement ][:measurement ]
[
:explanation ][:rule]]
Specifies how much detail to report for each piece of advice (default: all).
Each piece of advice may contain a brief description of what it is focused on (
description
), a
suggestion for improving performance in this area (
improvement ), additional performance meas-
urements which can be made to further explore this area (measurement ), a more detailed explana-
tion of what this performance area is (explanation ), and the name of the rule generating this
advice (rule).
Most rules will not have all of these components. One or more of these can be given to limit what gets
reported.
--analysis-focus=
{[executable: ]all|[executable: ]NAME[,[executable: ]NAME]...}
Specifies which executable program(s) to report on. By default, all (
all) executables which have per-
formance data in the given database(s) will be analyzed and a separate report produced for each.
To analyze only selected executables, list them by giving only their simple filename (no path informa-
tion).
--rule-files=RULEFILE1[,RULEFILE2]...
Specifies a list of files which contain the analysis rules to use (default: default). Only the rule files
listed (and any rule files that they include) will be used.
Each RULEFILE can be either a relative path, an absolute path, or a simple filename. Simple file
names are first searched for in the current directory, then (if not found) in the user’s personal rules
directory (˜/caliper_advisor), and finally (if still not found) in the directory of the running
caliper (caliper_root/rules).
GUI Options
The command line options which affect the graphical user interface are:
--gui (Can also be specified with the -g option.)
Start the caliper GUI to interactively measure and explore performance data.
