The IDE can import session data generated by a performance-measuring tool while an application ran. This allows you to view the results of previous analyses, including those shared by other team members or those from sessions that you ran outside of the IDE.

The IDE can export session data generated by a performance-analyzing tool while an application ran. This allows you to share analysis results or view them outside of the IDE.

Many IDE tools allow you to find errors and optimize applications, but to ensure that your embedded system behaves well, you need to use system-wide diagnostic tools. The QNX System Information and QNX System Profiler tools help you understand process and thread interaction on the target, reduce application and system startup times, and debug deadlock and improper CPU usage levels.

Using the IDE 's QNX System Builder feature, you can generate OS images , which are bootable images that contain startup code, the QNX OS , your applications, and any data files used by your applications. The IDE supports image building by allowing you to transfer an image to a target board.

The reference topics provide information about QNX Momentics IDE features and workflows that isn't covered in the chapters related to developing projects or debugging, testing, and analyzing applications.

The Lauterbach TRACE32® In-Circuit Debugger TRACEICD supports the JTAG onchip interface so you can perform hardware debugging of QNX OS systems through the QNX Momentics IDE. This section describes the typographical conventions used throughout the documentation and explains how to obtain technical support.

This profiling method has less overhead than measuring function runtimes but isn't perfect because a function can be called many times between sampling intervals and you won't see any references. Also, you can't use this method on timer-synchronized programs because the results won't be accurate.

For accurate results, you must obtain a statistically significant number of samples, so this method works best on long-running programs that spend most of their time executing code.

For instance, if a server process is mostly receive-blocked while waiting for client requests and spends very little time processing them, very few position samples can be obtained and so the results would be unreliable.

To count function calls, your binaries must be compiled and linked with -p ; for details, see Enabling call count instrumentation. The IDE switches to the QNX Analysis perspective. If necessary, the IDE first builds the binary.

Then, it uploads the binary and starts running it on the target. At this time, a new session is created and displayed in the Analysis Sessions view. As the application runs, profiling results are sent to the IDE, which stores them in the new session and presents them in the Execution Time view.

The profiling results include the function runtimes, call counts, and call sites. Initially, function information for all program components is listed. You can expand the Analysis Sessions entry and click a component to filter the display. For example, you may want to see only those runtimes for functions in your program code and not in any libraries that it uses, so you can click the application binary.

You should be able to see statistics for functions in any shared libraries used by your application. If you don't, you must manually define the library paths. With position sampling, there's no distinction of deep versus shallow time, so both columns report the same metric.

In addition to execution times, these columns display numbers and bar graphs representing the percentages of time spent in the various functions. You can change the columns displayed to see nondefault metrics, as explained in the Execution Time reference. Like the System Information statistics, the profiling results are refreshed every five seconds by default , so you can closely monitor changes in execution time breakdown as you interact with the application.

Double-clicking on any listing with a file and line number shown in the Location column opens the source code at that location. The IDE displays a bar graph and the execution time in the left margin. Home QNX Momentics IDE User's Guide.

Analyzing Performance QNX Momentics IDE works with the Application Profiler and Valgrind pronounced val-grinned Cachegrind tools, which measure the performance of programs running on QNX targets.

Profiling applications From the IDE , you can build an application for profiling and launch it. Sampling execution position and counting function calls Any application launched through the IDE reports its execution position at regular intervals.

QNX Momentics IDE User's Guide. Working with QNX Momentics IDE QNX Momentics IDE provides a graphical environment for developing, running, debugging, and profiling applications. Developing Projects with the IDE To use the QNX Momentics IDE to write applications targeted for QNX OS systems, you must define projects , which are containers that store your source code, configuration files, and binary files.

Debugging Applications The IDE allows you to debug a running application, a library used by the application, or a core file. Unit Testing The IDE lets you use commercial test frameworks to write unit tests and then execute them by launching a project.

Analyzing Memory Usage and Finding Memory Problems QNX Momentics IDE lets you run Memory Analysis and several Valgrind pronounced val-grinned tools to find memory problems such as leaks and corruption, and to measure memory usage of programs.

Monitoring performance The QNX System Information perspective displays realtime data about the processes running on a target machine, including CPU usage statistics. Measuring function runtimes You can instrument an application binary to report timestamps of function entrances and exits.

Profiling system activity with function instrumentation enabled You can perform a kernel event trace while running applications with function instrumentation enabled.

Attaching Application Profiler to a running process If you want to start seeing function runtimes and call counts for a running process, you can attach the Application Profiler tool. Comparing profiling session results Typically, profiling is part of an iterative development process in which you make changes to improve efficiency in some application areas based on the latest performance results.

Investigating performance bottlenecks The profiling results tell you which functions are called frequently and which ones have the longest execution times. Configuring shared library support The integrated performance measurement tools produce results that contain statistics for individual functions.

Measuring application performance from the command line You can run an application built with profiling instrumentation or run Valgrind Cachegrind on an application from the command line, outside of QNX Momentics IDE.

Similarly, the pseudo-code for loop yield points for this approach is:. As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, a counter-based yield point taking mechanism may be efficiently implemented on hardware architectures such as the PowerPC that include a count register and a decrement and conditional branch on count instruction.

A third approach blends the first two implementations by using a combined counter and timer based yield points in method prologues with a timer only yield point in loops. This may be desirable to support profile-directed inlining. An implementation of this approach is given by the following pseudo-code for prologue yield points:.

For loop yield points a pseudocode implementation is as follows:. Again, those skilled artisans will appreciate that the above prologue yield point may be efficiently implemented on architectures with a count register and associated machine instructions.

In accordance with the teachings of commonly-owned, co-pending U. That is, a low-level mechanism exists that is available to map from a taken yield point to a method.

Typical mechanisms include 1 inspecting the hardware state to determine the instruction address at which the yield point was taken and mapping that address to a method; and 2 inspecting the program's runtime stack to identify the method in which the yield point was taken, possibly by inspecting the return addresses stored on the runtime stack.

These low-level sampling mechanisms may further identify and track executing further information such as method call-context, basic blocks execution of control flow paths within executing methods and program variable values which may be processed for characterizing program behavior.

Implementations of takePrologueSample and takeLoopSample are now provided. One implementation of takePrologueSample and takeLoopSample comprises determining which method was executing when the yield point was taken and incrementing a counter associated with that method.

If the yield point was taken in a loop, then the sample should be attributed to the method containing the loop. If yield point was taken in a prologue, then the sample may be attributed to the calling method, the called method, or to both the calling and called method. In addition to incrementing a method counter, more complex samples may be taken to aid method inlining.

For example, the techniques described in commonly-owned, co-pending U. According to the preferred embodiment, the system makes a determination of when enough samples have been taken to make it profitable to invoke an organizer to process the raw data and communicate the resulting formatted data to the controller.

The basic mechanism relies on counting how many samples are taken and notifying all interested organizers when a sample threshold is exceeded. For example, a mechanism implemented for takePrologueSample is exemplified by the following pseudo-code:.

Likewise, the mechanism implemented for takeLoopSample is exemplified by the following pseudo-code:. The variable sampleSize may either be a fixed constant, or it may be adaptively varied by the controller. For example, it may be desirable for the controller to increase sampleSize when the application is in a steady state to reduce organizer and controller overhead.

It may also be desirable to decrease sampleSize when the application's working set is rapidly changing to enable the controller to quickly identify the new set of important methods to optimize. One mechanism for accomplishing both of these goals is to have the controller track the decision it makes for each event it processes from the organizer event queue In particular, the controller tracks the length of sequences of events for which it decides to: 1 optimize a method and 2 not optimize anything.

When the controller is frequently deciding to optimize a method based on the profiling data, then it decreases the sample size. When the controller is frequently deciding to do nothing, it increases the sample size.

After collecting the number of samples specified by its current sample size, the method listener wakes the hot methods organizer thread. When awoken, the hot methods organizer scans the method counter raw data to identify methods where the application spends most of its time. For each hot method it discovers, the hot methods organizer enqueues an event in the organizer event queue that contains the method and the percentage of samples attributed to the method.

Similarly, the controller dynamically adjusts the hotness threshold to approximately control the number of hot methods reported by the hot methods organizer. The following pseudo-code for the controller's main loop illustrates this as follows:.

Some possible implementations of shouldOptimize are described below. The call to removeEventFromOrganizerQueue blocks until an event is available. The value of threshold is an implementation dependent constant. It may be desirable to set upper and lower bounds on sampleSize to provide guarantees on response time and maximum controller overhead.

Based on the data provided to it by the organizers, the controller sub-system must decide which methods, if any, currently merit optimization. A number of algorithms may be used for making this decision. That is, in order to avoid performing unnecessary recompilation throughout the application, the recompilation organizer may optionally return only methods that have not already been recompiled at the maximum optimization level.

This filtering assures that the controller does not choose to recompile methods that are already recompiled at the highest optimization level. However, if optimization is tailored to dynamic characteristics of a method, it may be beneficial to reoptimize a method even at the highest opt level.

For instance, the compiler's optimizations may be grouped into several levels: a baseline level, Level 0; a first level, Level 1, comprising mainly of a set of optimizations performed on-the-fly during the translation from bytecodes to the intermediate representation.

As these optimizations reduce the size of the generated IR intermediate representation , performing them tends to reduce overall compilation time. For example, the compiler performs optimizations during IR generation including, but not limited to: constant, type, non-null, and copy propagation; constant folding and arithmetic simplification; unreachable code elimination; and elimination of redundant nullchecks, checkcasts, and array store checks; a second level, Level 2, which augments level 1 with additional local optimizations such as common sub-expression elimination, array bounds check elimination, and redundant load elimination.

It also adds inlining based on static-size heuristics, global flow-insensitive copy and constant propagation, global flow-insensitive dead assignment elimination, StringBuffer synchronization optimizations, and scalar replacement of aggregates and short arrays; and, a third level, Level 3, which augments level 2 with SSA-based flow-sensitive optimizations.

In addition to traditional SSA optimizations on scalar variables, the JVM system also uses an extended version of Array SSA form to perform redundant load elimination and array bounds check elimination.

Clearly, the factors in this model are unknowable in practice. The preferred embodiment is based on the fairly simple estimates as now described.

First, the controller sub-system assumes the program will execute for twice its current duration. So, if the application has run for 5 seconds, the controller assumes it will run for 5 more seconds; if it has run for 2 hours, then it will run for 2 more hours.

T f is defined to be the future expected running time of the program. The system additionally keeps track of where the application spends time as it runs, using the sampling techniques described previously. The system uses a weighted average of these samples to estimate the percentage of future time P m in each method, barring recompilation.

The weight of each sample starts at one and decays periodically. Thus, the execution behavior of the recent past exerts the most influence on the estimates of future program behavior. When the controller recompiles methods, it adjusts the future estimates to account for the new optimization level, and expected speedup due to recompilation.

The system estimates the effectiveness of each optimization level as a constant based on offline measurements. To complete the cost-benefit analysis, the controller is able to estimate the cost of recompilation. The preferred embodiment uses a linear model of the compilation speed for each optimization level, as a function of method size.

This model is calibrated offline, however, it is understood that other models are possible including those computed on-line.

According to the principles of the invention, a sampling technique is provided that may be used to determine what methods to optimize, i. According to another aspect of the invention, the preferred sampling technique may also be used to determine how to optimize these hot methods.

This process is called online feedback-directed optimizations FDO , i. To facilitate online FDO the runtime measurement subsystem is augmented to capture information about the characteristics of methods being executed.

Such characteristics may include: calling context information, such as described in commonly-owned, co-pending U. Other characteristics are possible. Calling context information may be used to assist the optimizing compiler in making inlining decisions. At a high level, the system takes a statistical sample of the method calls in the running application and maintains an approximation to the dynamic call graph based on this data.

The system may choose to recompile already optimized methods to inline hot call edges. When a thread switch occurs in a method prologue, the system calls the update method of an edge listener as well as the method listener, not shown.

This edge listener walks the thread's stack to determine the call site that originated the call. The edge listener creates a tuple identifying the calling edge specified by the caller, call site, and callee and inserts this tuple into a buffer. When the buffer becomes full, the edge listener is temporarily deactivated its update method will not be called again at a prologue thread switch and it notifies the dynamic call graph DCG organizer to wake up and process the buffer.

The DCG organizer maintains a dynamic call graph , where each edge corresponds to a tuple value in the buffer. After updating the weights in the dynamic call graph, the DCG organizer clears the buffer, and reactivates the edge listener.

The optional decay organizer , a separate thread, periodically decays the edge weights in the dynamic call graph. Periodically, the DCG organizer invokes the adaptive inlining organizer to recompute adaptive inlining decisions. The adaptive inlining organizer performs two functions.

First, it identifies edges in the dynamic call graph whose percentage of samples exceed an edge hotness threshold. These edges are added to an inlining rules data structure , which is consulted by the controller when it formulates compilation plans.

Any edge in this data structure will be inlined if the calling method is subsequently recompiled, subject to generous size constraints.

The system sets the initial edge hotness threshold fairly high, but periodically reduces it until reaching a fixed minimal value. Effectively, this forces inlining to be more conservative during program startup, but allows it to become progressively more aggressive as profiling data accumulates.

The second function of the adaptive inlining organizer of FIG. To be identified as a recompilation candidate by the inlining organizer, a method must satisfy two criteria. First, the method must be hot, as defined by the hotness threshold used by the hot method organizer.

Second, recompiling the method must force a new inlining action, as dictated by the inlining rules data structure When the adaptive inlining organizer identifies a method for recompilation, it enqueues an event representing the method for consideration by the controller.

The organizer estimates a boost factor, i. Values of parameters can be used to construct specialized versions of the methods where parameters are assumed to have certain common values. For example, if the system may determine that a method is often called with a value of passed as the first parameter, a special version of the called method may be constructed, where the optimizing compiler assumes the parameter has the value of and propagates this value throughout the method.

Because a method's computation is often dependent on the value of its parameter, this specialization can lead to a more efficient version of the method. Common control flow path information can be used to optimize machine code layout. For example, instructions on hot control flow paths can be located sequentially to improve i-cache performance.

This information can also be useful in guiding register allocation decisions, such as when to spill a register to memory. While the invention has been particularly shown and described with respect to illustrative and preformed embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the foregoing and other changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention which should be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.

Abstract For its high overall cost during product development, program debugging is an important aspect of system development. Debugging is a hard and complex activity, especially in time-sensitive systems which have limited resources and demanding timing constraints.

System tracing is a frequently used technique for debugging embedded systems. A specific use of system tracing is to monitor and debug control-flow problems in programs. However, it is difficult to implement because of the potentially high overhead it might introduce to the system and the changes which can occur to the system behaviour due to tracing.

To solve the above problems, in this work, we present a sampling-based approach to program execution monitoring which specifically helps developers trace the program execution in time-sensitive systems such as real-time applications. We build the system model and propose three theorems which determine the sampling period or the optimal in different scenarios.

We also design seven heuristics and an instrumentation framework to extend the sampling period which can reduce the monitoring overhead and achieve an optimal tradeoff between accuracy and overhead introduced by instrumentation.

Using this monitoring framework, we can use the information extracted through sampling to reconstruct the system state and execution paths to locate the deviation.

Based on the statistically significant data, we also model the trend of the sampling period with the instrumentation steps.

Based on the modelling results, we devise a scheme for predicting the number of markers we need to reach a certain sampling period.

This work presents a sampling-based approach to execution monitoring which specifically helps developers debug time-sensitive systems such as real-time ABSTRACT. Code profilers estimate the amount of time spent in each method by regularly sampling the method call stack.

Attaching Application Profiler to a running process If you want to start seeing function runtimes and call counts for a running process, you can attach the Application Profiler tool. Any edge in this data structure will be inlined if the calling method is subsequently recompiled, subject to generous size constraints. Reference The reference topics provide information about QNX Momentics IDE features and workflows that isn't covered in the chapters related to developing projects or debugging, testing, and analyzing applications.	Such characteristics may include: calling context information, such as described in commonly-owned, co-pending U. If it wasn't, the IDE doesn't launch the application and instead displays an error. The IDE supports this process by letting you easily compare the results of two Application Profiler sessions.

The 2nd Operation is Started and the SFC will be in Complete pending status at the Second operation until the sample is processed. More details on the implementations are discussed herein in more detail with respect to the inlining. According to the preferred embodiment, the system makes a determination of when enough samples have been taken to make it profitable to invoke an organizer to process the raw data and communicate the resulting formatted data to the controller. The consumer feedback collected in our Sampler program provided a great wealth of knowledge. However, with traditional product sampling, audience targeting is usually out of reach since your samples are handed out to whoever is there, rather than a targeted audience. Clearly, the factors in this model are unknowable in practice. Engage with the right people, wherever they are - get your product into the hands of consumers that represent the greatest potential.
