subroutine calls.
Filename and subroutine names are printed if available.

STABILITY
Evolving - uses the DTrace Perl provider, which may change
as additional features are introduced. Check Perl/Readme
to see what version these scripts are based on.
EXAMPLES
Default output, # pl_syscolors.d
FIELDS
C CPU-id
PID Process ID

FILE Filename of the Perl program
LINE Line number of filename
TYPE Type of call (sub/syscall)

WARNING
Watch the first column carefully, it prints the CPU-id. If it
changes, then it is very likely that the output has been shuffled.
DOCUMENTATION
See the DTraceToolkit for further documentation under the
Examples, Notes and Docs directories. The example files may be
especially useful as they aim to demonstrate how to interpret
the output.
