NAME
       trace-cmd-stat - show the status of the tracing (ftrace) system

SYNOPSIS
       trace-cmd stat [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
       The trace-cmd(1) stat displays the various status of the tracing (ftrace) system. The status that it shows is:

       Instances: List all configured ftrace instances.

       Tracer: if one of the tracers (like function_graph) is active. Otherwise nothing is displayed.

       Events: Lists the events that are enable.

       Event filters: Shows any filters that are set for any events

       Function filters: Shows any filters for the function tracers

       Graph functions: Shows any functions that the function graph tracer should graph

       Buffers: Shows the trace buffer size if they have been expanded. By default, tracing buffers are in a compressed
       format until they are used. If they are compressed, the buffer display will not be shown.

       Trace clock: If the tracing clock is anything other than the default "local" it will be displayed.

       Trace CPU mask: If not all available CPUs are in the tracing CPU mask, then the tracing CPU mask will be displayed.

       Trace max latency: Shows the value of the trace max latency if it is other than zero.

       Kprobes: Shows any kprobes that are defined for tracing.

       Uprobes: Shows any uprobes that are defined for tracing.

       Error log: Dump the content of ftrace error_log file.

OPTIONS
       -B buffer-name
	   Display the status of a given buffer instance. May be specified more than once to display the status of multiple
	   instances.

       -t
	   If -B is also specified, show the status of the top level tracing directory as well as the instance(s).

       -o
	   Display the all the options along with their values. If they start with "no", then the option is disabled.
