Recommendation for utilizing traces in the analysis of large-scale embedded software.
The importance of tracing is increasing! With the high performance and multi-core development of industrial electronic devices, embedded software is rapidly becoming large-scale and complex. To identify bugs and optimize performance with limited resources, efficient debugging methods are becoming essential. Traditional Go/Break-centered debugging methods require a lot of time and effort to pinpoint causes, and limitations are starting to become apparent in large-scale software. Tracing is an indispensable technology for analyzing difficult-to-reproduce issues and performance challenges, as it can visualize execution history and timing non-intrusively and without stopping the system. If Go/Break debugging is a snapshot of a moment, tracing can be considered a movie. Even when bugs only appear in real-time, they can still be detected. To achieve both shorter development cycles and improved quality, the use of tracing has now become one of the important foundations of development.
