Tracing Tools

- -

Tracing is routinely used to help understanding the behavior and performance -of various aspects of the Linux kernel and associated drivers. -Many of the 80K+ printk statements in the Linux kernel -serve this purpose, although printk is relatively low -performance and unreliable. The small default printk buffer size coupled with -the low performance brings lost messages as soon as the volume becomes -significant. - -

For this reason, a number of drivers include their own tracing macros -and infrastructure. A quick search looking for TRACE and related keywords -in the Linux kernel source reveals some form of tracing in at least -the following files: - -
