perf-tools is a set of performance analysis tools for Linux and other UNIX-like systems developed by Brendan Gregg. In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the steps to install perf-tools on FreeBSD Latest.
Before installing perf-tools, you need to install several dependencies on your system. Run the following command to install them:
sudo pkg install cmake bison flex gcc gmake libelf libdwarf libunwind-headers openssl
This will install all the necessary tools and libraries that are required for the perf-tools installation.
Next, you need to clone the perf-tools repository to your local system. Run the following command to clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/brendangregg/perf-tools.git
Once you have cloned the repository, navigate to the perf-tools directory and execute the following commands:
cd perf-tools
make
sudo make install
This will build and install perf-tools to your system.
To verify that perf-tools have been installed correctly on your system, run the following command:
echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid
If the command runs without any errors, you have successfully installed perf-tools on your FreeBSD Latest system.
We hope this tutorial has helped you install perf-tools on FreeBSD Latest. Now you can use these powerful performance analysis tools to diagnose any performance issues on your system.
