Getting Started with Tracing

ARM DS-5 provides powerful tracing features, allowing PTM and STM tracing. It allows different tracing

data destination types.
This section presents an example of Program Tracing using PTM and storing the tracing information in

memory using ETF.
The tracing scenario presented here uses Linux kernel debugging as an example, but any application can

be traced in the same way.
As shown, the tracing can be selected to show current core, a particular core, or follow the currently

executing thread.
The following steps are necessary in order to enable PTM tracing:
1. Execute the steps described in the

Getting Started with Linux Kernel and Driver Debugging

section

to perform Linux kernel debugging.

2. Select Run -> Debug Configurations and select the Debug Linux_DevKit configuration created at the

previous step.

3. Select the Connection tab.

4. Click the Edit DTSL Options button.
