By default, the file .Pa ktrace.out in the current directory is displayed. .Pp The options are as follows: .Bl -tag -width Fl .It Fl d Display all numbers in decimal. .It Fl e Ar emulation Interpret system call maps assuming the named emulation instead of "netbsd". .It Fl f Ar file Display the specified file instead of .Pa ktrace.out . .It Fl l Loop reading the trace file, once the end-of-file is reached, waiting for more data. .It Fl m Ar maxdata Display at most .Ar maxdata bytes when decoding .Tn I/O . .It Fl n Suppress ad hoc translations. Normally .Nm kdump tries to decode many system calls into a more human readable format. For example, .Xr ioctl 2 values are replaced with the macro name and .Va errno values are replaced with the .Xr strerror 3 string. Suppressing this feature yields a more consistent output format and is easily amenable to further processing. .It Fl R Display relative timestamps (time since previous entry). .It Fl T Display absolute timestamps for each entry (seconds since epoch). .It Fl t Ar cnis See the .Fl t option of .Xr ktrace 1 . .El .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr ktrace 1 .Sh HISTORY The .Nm kdump command appears in .Bx 4.4 .
