NAME

       pxp - Pascal execution profiler

SYNOPSIS

       pxp [ -acdefjnstuw_ ] [ -23456789 ] [ -z [ name ... ] ] name.p

DESCRIPTION

       Pxp can be used to obtain execution profiles of Pascal programs or as a pretty-printer.	To produce an execution profile all that is neces-
       sary is to translate the program specifying the z option to pi or pix, to execute the program, and to then issue the command

	    pxp -z name.p

       A reformatted listing is output if none of the c, t, or z options are specified; thus

	    pxp old.p > new.p

       places a pretty-printed version of the program in `old.p' in the file `new.p'.

       The use of the following options of pxp is discussed in sections 2.6, 5.4, 5.5 and 5.10 of the Berkeley Pascal User's Manual.

       -a    Print the bodies of all procedures and functions in the profile; even those which were never executed.

       -c    Extract profile data from the file core.

       -d    Include declaration parts in a profile.

       -e    Eliminate include directives when reformatting a file; the include is replaced by the reformatted contents of the specified file.

       -f    Fully parenthesize expressions.

       -j    Left justify all procedures and functions.

       -n    Eject a new page as each file is included; in profiles, print a blank line at the top of the page.

       -s    Strip comments from the input text.

       -t    Print a table summarizing procedure and function call counts.

       -u    Card image mode; only the first 72 characters of input lines are used.

       -w    Suppress warning diagnostics.

       -z    Generate an execution profile.  If no names, are given the profile is of the entire program.  If a list of names is given, then  only
	     any specified procedures or functions and the contents of any specified include files will appear in the profile.

       -_    Underline keywords.

       -d    With d a digit, 2 <= d <= 9, causes pxp to use d spaces as the basic indenting unit.  The default is 4.

FILES

       name.p		   input file
       name.i		   include file(s)
       pmon.out 	   profile data
       core		   profile data source with -c
       /usr/share/pascal/how_pxpinformation on basic usage

DIAGNOSTICS

       For a basic explanation do

	      pxp

       Error  diagnostics  include  `No  profile  data in file' with the c option if the z option was not enabled to pi; `Not a Pascal system core
       file' if the core is not from a px execution; `Program and count data do not correspond' if the	program  was  changed  after  compilation,
       before profiling; or if the wrong program is specified.

AA-GENPROF(8)							     AppArmor							     AA-GENPROF(8)

NAME

       aa-genprof - profile generation utility for AppArmor

SYNOPSIS

       aa-genprof <executable> [-d /path/to/profiles]

OPTIONS

       -d --dir /path/to/profiles

	  Specifies where to look for the AppArmor security profile set.
	  Defaults to /etc/apparmor.d.

DESCRIPTION

       When running aa-genprof, you must specify a program to profile.	If the specified program is not a fully-qualified path, aa-genprof will
       search $PATH in order to find the program.

       If a profile does not exist for the program, aa-genprof will create one using aa-autodep(1).

       Genprof will then:

	  - set the profile to complain mode

	  - write a mark to the system log

	  - instruct the user to start the application to
	    be profiled in another window and exercise its functionality

       It then presents the user with two options, (S)can system log for entries to add to profile and (F)inish.

       If the user selects (S)can or hits return, aa-genprof will parse the complain mode logs and iterate through generated violations using
       aa-logprof(1).

       After the user finishes selecting profile entries based on violations that were detected during the program execution, aa-genprof will
       reload the updated profiles in complain mode and again prompt the user for (S)can and (D)one. This cycle can then be repeated as necessary
       until all application functionality has been exercised without generating access violations.

       When the user eventually hits (F)inish, aa-genprof will set the main profile, and any other profiles that were generated, into enforce mode
       and exit.
