NAME
       ovs-parse-backtrace - parses ovs-appctl backtrace output

SYNOPSIS
       ovs-appctl backtrace | ovs-parse-backtrace [binary]

       ovs-parse-backtrace [binary] < backtrace

DESCRIPTION
       In  some configurations, many Open vSwitch daemons can produce a series
       of backtraces using the ovs-appctl backtrace command.  Users  can  ana‐
       lyze  these backtraces to figure out what the given Open vSwitch daemon
       may be spending most of its time doing.  ovs-parse-backtrace makes this
       output easier to interpret.

       The  ovs-appctl  backtrace  output  must be supplied on standard input.
       The binary that produced the output should be supplied as the sole non-
       option  argument.   For best results, the binary should have debug sym‐
       bols.

OPTIONS
       --help Prints a usage message and exits.

       --version Prints the version and exits.
