oparchive - produce archive of oprofile data for offline analysis

       The  oparchive  utility  is  commonly  used  for  collecting profile data on a "target" system for future
       offline analysis on  a  different  ("host")  machine.   oparchive  creates  a  directory  populated  with
       executables,  libraries,  debuginfo files, and oprofile sample files. This directory can be tar'ed up and
       moved to another machine to be analyzed without further use of the target  machine.  Using  opreport  and
       other  post-profiling  tools  against  archived  data  requires  the  use  of  the archive:<archived-dir>
       specification. See oprofile(1) for how to  write  profile  specifications.   A  complete  description  of
       offline  analysis can be found in the chapter titled Analyzingprofiledataonanothersystem(oparchive)
       of the OProfile user manual. (See the user manual URL in the "SEE ALSO" section below.)

       No special environment variables are recognized by oparchive.

<session_dir>/samples
              The location of the generated sample files.

--help/-?/--usage
              Show help message.

       --version/-v
              Show version.

       --verbose/-V[options]
              Give verbose debugging output.

       --session-dir=dir_path
              Use sample database from the specified directory dir_path instead  of  the  default  location.  If
              --session-dir    is    not    specified,    then    oparchive   will   search   for   samples   in
              <current_dir>/oprofile_data first. If that directory does not exist, the standard  session-dir  of
              /var/lib/oprofile is used.

       --image-path/-p[paths]
              Comma-separated  list  of additional paths to search for binaries.  This is needed to find modules
              in kernels 2.6 and upwards.

       --root/-R[path]
              A path to a filesystem to search for additional binaries.

       --output-directory/-o[directory]
              Output to the given directory. There is no default. This must be specified.

       --exclude-dependent/-x
              Do not include application-specific images for libraries, kernel  modules  and  the  kernel.  This
              option only makes sense if the profile session used --separate.

       --list-files/-l
              Only list the files that would be archived, don't copy them.
