KPROF(10.1)                                           KPROF(10.1)

     NAME
          kprof - display kernel profiling data

     SYNOPSIS
          kprof kernel kpdata

     DESCRIPTION
          Kprof presents the data accumulated by the kernel profiling
          device, kprof(3).  The symbol table is taken from the file
          kernel, the executable file of the operating system kernel
          that was profiled.  The data file kpdata is usually a copy
          of /dev/kpdata from the device running the profiling kernel.

          The symbol table is read and correlated with the profile
          data.  For each symbol, the time (in milliseconds) spent
          executing between that symbol and the next is printed (in
          decreasing order), together with the percentage of the total
          time.
