v3.13.0

v3.13.0 is a feature and maintenance release.

What's Changed

• benchmarks have been moved to a new command -- into 'benchmark' and out of 'report'. See perfspect benchmark --help.
• the 'flame' command has been renamed to 'flamegraph'. 'flame' has been retained as an alias.

What's New

• added option to trim metric summary by time range, e.g., filter-out starting and/or ending data. See the --trim option in the metrics command.
• config command flags now rendered in output to improve usability.
• added option to record and restore system configuration through config command. See the --record and --restore options in the config command.
• NIC packet steering, MTU size, TX/RX Queue sizes added to report.
• storage benchmark extended to measure bandwidth and latency in multiple configurations.
• when the user overrides the default output directory with --output, PerfSpect will now create the directory if it does not already exist.
• added support for user-provided perf event for native flamegraph creation. See the --perf-event option in the flamegraph command.
• added basic metrics support for Ampere Altra

What's Fixed

• exclude final metric sample when running with workload as it is likely a partial collection
• fix benchmark summary by removing mismatched storage benchmark fields
• elevate privileges for kernel module installation and uninstallation
• superuser privileges not required to collect all telemetry
• multi-target flame graph HTML report now rendered
