 It is also possible to specify a probe point by the source line number by using 'SRC:ALN' syntax, where 'SRC' is the source file path and 'ALN' is the line number.

+Line range is descripted by following syntax.

+ "FUNC[:RLN[+NUM|:RLN2]]|SRC:ALN[+NUM|:ALN2]"
+
+FUNC specifies the function name of showing lines. 'RLN' is the start line

+probe syntax, 'SRC' means the source file path, 'ALN' is start line number,
+and 'ALN2' is end line number in the file. It is also possible to specify how
+many lines to show by using 'NUM'.
+So, "source.c:100-120" shows lines between 100th to l20th in source.c file. And "func:10+20" shows 20 lines from 10th line of func function.

+==================
+
+NAME
+----
+perf-trace-python - Process trace data with a Python script
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+'perf trace' [-s [Python]:script[.py] ]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+This perf trace option is used to process perf trace data using perf's
+built-in Python interpreter.  It reads and processes the input file and
+displays the results of the trace analysis implemented in the given
+Python script, if any.
+
+A QUICK EXAMPLE
+---------------
+
+This section shows the process, start to finish, of creating a working
+Python script that aggregates and extracts useful information from a
+raw perf trace stream.  You can avoid reading the rest of this
+document if an example is enough for you; the rest of the document
+provides more details on each step and lists the library functions
+available to script writers.
+
+This example actually details the steps that were used to create the
+'syscall-counts' script you see when you list the available perf trace
+scripts via 'perf trace -l'.  As such, this script also shows how to
+integrate your script into the list of general-purpose 'perf trace'
+scripts listed by that command.
+
+The syscall-counts script is a simple script, but demonstrates all the
+basic ideas necessary to create a useful script.  Here's an example
+of its output (syscall names are not yet supported, they will appear
+as numbers):

+----
+
+Basically our task is to keep a per-syscall tally that gets updated
+every time a system call occurs in the system.  Our script will do
+that, but first we need to record the data that will be processed by
+that script.  Theoretically, there are a couple of ways we could do
+that:
+
+- we could enable every event under the tracing/events/syscalls
+  directory, but this is over 600 syscalls, well beyond the number
+  allowable by perf.  These individual syscall events will however be
+  useful if we want to later use the guidance we get from the
+  general-purpose scripts to drill down and get more detail about
+  individual syscalls of interest.
+
+- we can enable the sys_enter and/or sys_exit syscalls found under
+  tracing/events/raw_syscalls.  These are called for all syscalls; the
+  'id' field can be used to distinguish between individual syscall
+  numbers.
+
+For this script, we only need to know that a syscall was entered; we
+don't care how it exited, so we'll use 'perf record' to record only
+the sys_enter events:
+
+----
+# perf record -c 1 -f -a -M -R -e raw_syscalls:sys_enter
+
+^C[ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
+[ perf record: Captured and wrote 56.545 MB perf.data (~2470503 samples) ]
+----
+
+The options basically say to collect data for every syscall event
+system-wide and multiplex the per-cpu output into a single stream.
+That single stream will be recorded in a file in the current directory
+called perf.data.
+
+Once we have a perf.data file containing our data, we can use the -g
+'perf trace' option to generate a Python script that will contain a
+callback handler for each event type found in the perf.data trace
+stream (for more details, see the STARTER SCRIPTS section).
+
+----
+# perf trace -g python
+generated Python script: perf-trace.py
+
+The output file created also in the current directory is named
+perf-trace.py.  Here's the file in its entirety:
+
+# perf trace event handlers, generated by perf trace -g python
+# Licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL License version 2
+
+# The common_* event handler fields are the most useful fields common to
+# all events.  They don't necessarily correspond to the 'common_*' fields
+# in the format files.  Those fields not available as handler params can
+# be retrieved using Python functions of the form common_*(context).
+# See the perf-trace-python Documentation for the list of available functions.

+At the top is a comment block followed by some import statements and a
+path append which every perf trace script should include.
+
+Following that are a couple generated functions, trace_begin() and
+trace_end(), which are called at the beginning and the end of the
+script respectively (for more details, see the SCRIPT_LAYOUT section
+below).
+
+Following those are the 'event handler' functions generated one for
+every event in the 'perf record' output.  The handler functions take
+the form subsystem__event_name, and contain named parameters, one for
+each field in the event; in this case, there's only one event,
+raw_syscalls__sys_enter().  (see the EVENT HANDLERS section below for
+more info on event handlers).
+
+The final couple of functions are, like the begin and end functions,
+generated for every script.  The first, trace_unhandled(), is called
+every time the script finds an event in the perf.data file that
+doesn't correspond to any event handler in the script.  This could
+mean either that the record step recorded event types that it wasn't
+really interested in, or the script was run against a trace file that
+doesn't correspond to the script.
