Archives generated by the command 'perf archive' have to be unpacked manually. Following the addition of option '--all' now there also exist a nested structure of tars, and after further discussion with Red Hat Global Support Services, they found a feature correctly unpacking archives of 'perf archive' convenient. Option '--unpack' of 'perf archive' unpacks archives generated by the command 'perf archive' as well as archives generated when used with option '--all'. The 'perf.data' file is placed in the current directory, while debug symbols are unpacked in '~/.debug' directory. A tar filename can be passed as an argument, and if not provided the command tries to find a viable perf.tar file for unpacking.

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.
