The Linux trace toolkit provides a means by which you can search for a specific event. This is done through the Go to event.. window:

    To use it, simply select the type of query you will provide, enter it and click the Find button. Searching will begin after the currently selected event in the raw event list and all events will be searched.

    The following query types are allowed:

• CPU ID: Search for an exact match on the CPU Identifier provided;
• Event Type: Find the next event whose type is specified in the option menu;
• PID: Look for the next occurrence of the specified Process identifier;
• Entry Length: Search for the next event of length provided, as specified by the kernel;
• Event Description: CASE-SENSITIVE substring search on the event descriptor;

    When a result is found, the matching event is selected and scrolled to in the raw event list. Errors are reported in the main window's status bar.
