TRACE-CMD-STACK(1)
==================

NAME
----
trace-cmd-stack - read, enable or disable Ftrace Linux kernel stack tracing.

SYNOPSIS
--------
*trace-cmd stack*

DESCRIPTION
-----------
The trace-cmd(1) stack enables the Ftrace stack tracer within the kernel.
The stack tracer enables the function tracer and at each function call
within the kernel, the stack is checked. When a new maximum usage stack
is discovered, it is recorded.

When no option is used, the current stack is displayed.

To enable the stack tracer, use the option *--start*, and to disable
the stack tracer, use the option *--stop*. The output will be the maximum
stack found since the start was enabled.

Use *--reset* to reset the stack counter to zero.
