🦋 ovs-parse-backtrace(8) — Open vSwitch's backtrace parser 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

ovs-parse-backtrace — parses ovs-appctl backtrace output. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ovs-appctl backtrace | ovs-parse-backtrace [<binary>]

ovs-parse-backtrace [<binary>] < <backtrace>

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so picture this, bestie: in some configurations, many Open vSwitch daemons can produce a whole series of backtraces using the ovs-appctl backtrace command. 👑 You can analyze those backtraces to figure out what the given Open vSwitch daemon may be spending most of its time doing — and ovs-parse-backtrace makes that output easier to interpret. Literally iconic.

The ovs-appctl backtrace output must be supplied on standard input. The binary that produced the output should be supplied as the sole non-option argument. 🫶

For best results, the binary should have debug symbols. No cap — that's the glow-up that helps the most. ✨

🔥 OPTIONS 🔥

  • --help — prints a usage message and exits. 🎀
  • --version — prints the version and exits. ⭐
