13028f12eeSStephane EranianDESCRIPTION
14028f12eeSStephane Eranian-----------
1567121f85SStephane Eranian"perf mem record" runs a command and gathers memory operation data
16028f12eeSStephane Eranianfrom it, into perf.data. Perf record options are accepted and are passed through.
17028f12eeSStephane Eranian
1867121f85SStephane Eranian"perf mem report" displays the result. It invokes perf report with the
1967121f85SStephane Eranianright set of options to display a memory access profile. By default, loads
2067121f85SStephane Eranianand stores are sampled. Use the -t option to limit to loads or stores.
