irqtop − utility to display kernel interrupt information
irqtop [options]
Display kernel interrupt counter information in top(1) style view.
The default output is subject to change. So whenever possible, you should avoid using default outputs in your scripts. Always explicitly define expected columns by using −−output.
−o, −−output list
Specify which output columns to print. Use −−help to get a list of all supported columns. The default list of columns may be extended if list is specified in the format +list.
−d, −−delay seconds
Update interrupt output every seconds intervals.
−s, −−sort column
Specify sort criteria by column name. See −−help output to get column names. The sort criteria may be changes in interactive mode.
−S, −−softirq
Show softirqs information.
−V, −−version
Display version information and exit.
−h, −−help
Display help text and exit.
i
sort by short irq name or number field
t
sort by total count of interrupts (the default)
d
