Commands such as kmem, kwork, lock, sched, trace and timechart depend on
libtraceevent, these commands need to be isolated using HAVE_LIBTRACEEVENT
macro when cmdlist generation.
The output of the generate-cmdlist.sh script is as follows:
# ./util/generate-cmdlist.sh
/* Automatically generated by ./util/generate-cmdlist.sh */
struct cmdname_help
{
char name[16];
char help[80];
};
static struct cmdname_help common_cmds[] = {
{"annotate", "Read perf.data (created by perf record) and display annotated code"},
{"archive", "Create archive with object files with build-ids found in perf.data file"},

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
