Hi,
Can you run the strings command on the binary first ? That should extract all human-readable text from the binary, which you could then do anything else you wanted to.

blkiomon
BLKIOMON(8) BLKIOMON(8)
NAME
blkiomon - monitor block device I/O based o blktrace data
SYNOPSIS
blkiomon -I interval [ -h file ] [ -b file ] [ -D file ] [ -Q path_name -q msg_queue_id -m msg_id ] [ -V ]
DESCRIPTION
blkiomon is a block device I/O monitor. It periodically generates per-device request size and request latency statistics from blktrace
data. It provides histograms as well as data that can be used to calculate min, max, average and variance. For this purpose, it consumes D
and C traces read from stdin.
There are options for binary output and human-readable output to files and stdout. Output to a message queue is supported as well.
There is no need to use blkparse with blkiomon. blkiomon is capable of consuming binary output written to stdout by blktrace.
OPTIONS
-I interval
--interval=interval
Set sample interval
-h file
--human-readable=file
Human-readable output file. Use '-' for stdout.
-b file
--binary=file
Binary output file. Use '-' for stdout.
-D file
--debug=file
Output file for debugging data. Use '-' for stdout.
-Q path_name
--msg-queue=path_name
Sets path_name as path name for existing message queue to be used for binary output.
-q msg_queue_id
--msg-queue-id=msg_queue_id
Sets msg_queue_id as ID for an existing message queue to be used for binary output.
-m msg_id
--msg-id=msg_id
Sets msg_id as message identifier to be used for binary output messages written to an existing message queue.
-V
--version
Print program version.
EXAMPLES
To get I/O statistics for /dev/sdw every 10 seconds for a period of one hour, use the following command:
% blktrace /dev/sdw -a issue -a complete -w 3600 -o - | blkiomon -I 10 -h -
