Android Systrace Trace File Format

问题


Android systrace tool, calls atrace tool via ADB. However, I don't understand very well the format of the traces file. Apparently it is very similar to linux ftrace tool with some differences. The main difference is that is doesn't uses a System.Map file but it includes all that information into the trace file. Also, there are new B|E entries that are android specific.

There is some information about this format in Android Source Code at: http://androidxref.com/4.1.1/xref/external/chromium-trace/src/tracing/linux_perf_importer.js

However, in that documentation we can read that the format belongs to Linux Perf Tool. I don't think so, linux perf gives as an output a very different format... (unless some special configuration is active...)

My question is: Does anybody know where can I found an official documentation about android trace files generated with atrace tool from adb?

Is this format familiar to you ?

Thanks in advance !

Well, now it is sure: the format belongs to ftrace tool. Android atrace is an extension of ftrace build to facilitate configuration.

The official documentation from ftrace, shows that this output format can directly be produced by it in the following way:

root@adroid:# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/enable
root@adroid:# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on
root@adroid:# cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace > mytracefile.txt
root@adroid:# echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on
root@adroid:# echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/enable

Official Documentation at: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/trace/ftrace.txt

Great post however don't forget to MOUNT the debug filesystem,

"mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug" or 
"mount -o rw,remount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug"

otherwise you will not get something like

"error opening /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/options/overwrite: No such file or directory "

when running atrace
