Re: [tracecompass-dev] Populating Control Flow panel with generated events

Hi Guido,


My guess is the problem comes from the CPU. In LTTng-generated traces, the CPU ID comes from the channel. In your generated trace, there is a field called cpu_id. Chances are that Trace Compass does not realize that this field is actually the CPU, and since it cannot resolve the CPU, it cannot fill the control flow data...

And yes as Matthew said, if the trace is not recognized as a proper kernel trace, the kernel analysis will not run...


Why don't you use LTTng directly to trace? or ftrace? These trace types would work.


Regards,

Geneviève

Hello All,


I would like first to thank you all for the amazing work done!


I am trying to use Trace Compass to display scheduling data coming from a different OS.

I would in particular like to leverage "Control flow" panel to show threads execution.


I found trace_writer.py in https://github.com/lttng/lttng-analyses.git

github.com
Analyses scripts for LTTng kernel and user-space traces (official repository) - lttng/lttng-analyses


that lets me  create events of type sched_switch  and  lttng_statedump_process_state


here's an example of the output of babeltrace of my generated trace

[01:00:00.058000000] (+0.000000000) lttng_statedump_process_state: { }, { tid = 2382439472, vtid = 2382439472, pid = 2382439472, vpid = 2382439472, ppid = 98, vppid = 98, name = "thd3", type = 0, mode = 5, submode = 0, status = 5, ns_level = 0, cpu_id = 0 }
[01:00:00.059000000] (+0.001000000) sched_switch: { }, { prev_comm = "test", prev_tid = 2382404352, prev_prio = 20, prev_state = 1, next_comm = "thd1", next_tid = 2382425552, next_prio = 20, cpu_id = 0 }
[01:00:00.059000000] (+0.000000000) sched_switch: { }, { prev_comm = "thd1", prev_tid = 2382425552, prev_prio = 20, prev_state = 1, next_comm = "thd2", next_tid = 2382432512, next_prio = 20, cpu_id = 0 }



I can see the event in the Histogram panel but not in the Control Flow one.


What do I need to do in order to have Trace Compass display data in Control Flow too?



Thank you very much for any input


Best Regards


Gudo
