A section starts with its name +surrounded by square brackets and continues till the next section +begins. Each variable must be in a section, and have the form +'name = value', for example: + + [section] + name1 = value1 + name2 = value2 + +Section names are case sensitive and can contain any characters except +newline (double quote `"` and backslash have to be escaped as `\"` and `\\`, +respectively). Section headers can't span multiple lines. + +Example +~~~~~~~ + +Given a $HOME/.perfconfig like this: + +# +# This is the config file, and +# a '#' and ';' character indicates a comment +# + + [colors] + # Color variables + top = red, default + medium = green, default + normal = lightgray, default + selected = white, lightgray + code = blue, default + addr = magenta, default + root = white, blue + + [tui] + # Defaults if linked with libslang + report = on + annotate = on + top = on + + [buildid] + # Default, disable using /dev/null + dir = ~/.debug + + [annotate] + # Defaults + hide_src_code = false + use_offset = true + jump_arrows = true + show_nr_jumps = false + + [help] + # Format can be man, info, web or html + format = man + autocorrect = 0 + + [ui] + show-headers = true + + [call-graph] + # fp (framepointer), dwarf + record-mode = fp + print-type = graph + order = caller + sort-key = function + +SEE ALSO +-------- +linkperf:perf[1] -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
