On some platforms a bit of setup work is required. This is done in the \texttt{InitCallstack()} function.
|
||||
|
||||
On Windows, tracy will attempt to preload symbols at \texttt{InitCallstack()} time. It does this for device drivers and process modules. As this process can be slow when a lot of pdbs are involved, you can set the \texttt{TRACY\_NO\_DBHELP\_INIT\_LOAD} environment variable to "1" to disable this behavior and rely on-demand symbol loading.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Getting the frames}
|
||||
|
||||
Call stack collection is initiated by calling the \texttt{Callstack()} procedure, with maximum stack depth to be collected passed as a parameter. Stack unwinding must be performed in the place in which call stack was queried, as further execution of the application will change the stack contents. The unfortunate part is that the stack unwinding on platforms other than x86 is not a fast operation.
|
||||
|
||||
To perform unwinding various OS functions are used: \texttt{RtlWalkFrameChain()}, \texttt{\_Unwind\_Backtrace()}, \texttt{backtrace()}. A list of returned frame pointers is saved in a buffer, which will be later sent to the server. The maximum unwinding depth limit (63 entries) is due to the specifics of the underlying OS functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
On some platforms you can define \texttt{TRACE\_CLIENT\_LIBUNWIND\_BACKTRACE} to use libunwind to perform callstack captures, as it might be a faster alternative than the default implementation. If you do, you must compile/link you client against libunwind. See \url{https://github.com/libunwind/libunwind} for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
\subsubsection{Decoding stack frames}
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike the always changing call stack, stack frames themselves are immutable pointers to a specific place in the executable code. As such, the decoding process can be performed at any time (even outside of the program execution, as exemplified by debuggers). Frame decoding is only performed when the server asks for the details of a frame (section~\ref{communicationsprotocol}).

Tracy will prepare for call stack collection regardless of whether you use the functionality or not. In some cases, this may be unwanted or otherwise troublesome for the user. To disable support for collecting call stacks, define the \texttt{TRACY\_NO\_CALLSTACK} macro.

\paragraph{Disabling resolution of inline frames}
|
||||
|
||||
Inline frames retrieval on Windows can be multiple orders of magnitude slower than just performing essential symbol resolution. This manifests as profiler seemingly being stuck for a long time, having hundreds of thousands of query backlog entries queued, which are slowly trickling down. If your use case requires speed of operation rather than having call stacks with inline frames included, you may define the \texttt{TRACY\_NO\_CALLSTACK\_INLINES} macro, which will make the profiler stick to the basic but fast frame resolution mode.

|
||||
|
||||
Some profiling data can only be retrieved using the kernel facilities, which are not available to users with normal privilege level. To collect such data, you will need to elevate your rights to the administrator level. You can do so either by running the profiled program from the \texttt{root} account on Unix or through the \emph{Run as administrator} option on Windows\footnote{To make this easier, you can run MSVC with admin privileges, which will be inherited by your program when you start it from within the IDE.}. On Android, you will need to have a rooted device (see section~\ref{androidlunacy} for additional information).
|
||||
|
||||
As this system-level tracing functionality is part of the automated collection process, no user intervention is necessary to enable it (assuming that the program was granted the rights needed). However, if, for some reason, you would want to prevent your application from trying to access kernel data, you may recompile your program with the \texttt{TRACY\_NO\_SYSTEM\_TRACING} define.
