trace-cmd: List available tracers.

The trace-cmd list -t command is used to display the available event types in a tracing session. Here's a breakdown of the command and its options:

  • trace-cmd: It is a command-line tool that allows you to control and interact with the Linux kernel's tracing capabilities.

  • list: Specifies that you want to list information related to the tracing session.

  • -t: This option is used to filter and display only the event types available in the tracing session. It will show the various events that can be traced, such as function calls, interrupts, context switches, etc.

By running trace-cmd list -t, you will get a list of event types that can be traced during a tracing session, providing insights into the different activities and behaviors occurring in the system.
