💅 PERF-ARCHIVE(1) 💅

Hey bestie, this is the perf Manual entry for perf-archive — yes, the hyphen is part of the main character energy. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

perf-archive — creates an archive with the object files whose build-ids are found in a perf.data file. That's the vibe. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

perf archive [file]

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so here's the tea, fr fr: this command runs perf-buildid-list --with-hits, then collects the files with the buildids that were found. Why? So that analysis of the contents of perf.data can be possible on another machine. Literally the whole point, no cap. 🦋

Not me being obsessed with a command that grabs the build-id files you need for another machine. It's giving "prepared bestie" energy. 💅
