Only consider the listed symbols. Symbols are typically a name
but they may also be hexadecimal address.
+ The hexadecimal address may be the start address of a symbol or
+ any other address to filter the trace records

For example, to select the symbol noploop or the address 0x4007a0:
perf script --symbols=noploop,0x4007a0
+ Support filtering trace records by symbol name, start address of
+ symbol, any hexadecimal address and address range.
+
+ The comparison order is:
+
+ 1. symbol name comparison
+ 2. symbol start address comparison.
+ 3. any hexadecimal address comparison.
+ 4. address range comparison (see --addr-range).

+ Use with -S or --symbols to list traced records within address range.

Show call stream for intel_pt traces. The CPUs are interleaved, but
can be filtered with -C.
