Name
       kgconv - convert a dump from kgmon (kgdump.out) to gprof format (gmon.out)

Syntax
       kgconv [ -d ] [ -ncpunumber ] [ dumpfile ] [ system ]

Description
       The  command  is used to convert the dump file (kgdump.out) produced by to the format required by The output file is gmon.out, which can be
       directly used by If the -n flag is not used, kgconv dumps the cumulative profile data about all the processors in the system.

Options
       -ncpunumber    Converts profile data for the specified processor only.

       -d	      Uses the dumpfile specified as the next argument, instead of kgdump.out as the input file.

NAME

     kgmon -- generate a dump of the operating system's profile buffers

SYNOPSIS

     kgmon [-bdhpr] [-M core] [-N system]

DESCRIPTION

     kgmon is a tool used when profiling the operating system.	When no arguments are supplied, kgmon indicates the state of operating system pro-
     filing as running, off, or not configured (see config(1)).  If the -p flag is specified, kgmon extracts profile data from the operating sys-
     tem and produces a gmon.out file suitable for later analysis by gprof(1).

     The options are as follows:

     -b      Resume the collection of profile data.

     -d      Enable debug output.

     -h      Stop the collection of profile data.

     -M core
	     Extract values associated with the name list from the specified core instead of the default /dev/kmem.

     -N system
	     Extract the name list from the specified system instead of the default /netbsd.

     -p      Dump the contents of the profile buffers into a gmon.out file.

     -r      Reset all the profile buffers.  If the -p flag is also specified, the gmon.out file is generated before the buffers are reset.

     If neither -b nor -h is specified, the state of profiling collection remains unchanged.  For example, if the -p flag is specified and profile
     data is being collected, profiling will be momentarily suspended, the operating system profile buffers will be dumped, and profiling will be
     immediately resumed.

FILES

     /netbsd	 the default system
     /dev/kmem	 the default memory

DIAGNOSTICS

     Users with only read permission on /dev/kmem cannot change the state of profiling collection.  They can get a gmon.out file with the warning
     that the data may be inconsistent if profiling is in progress.
