Fix MSVC Warning C4244: 'argument': conversion from 'uint64_t' to
'uint32_t', possible loss of data
We only store 32 bit thread ids in ThreadNameData.
Trying to follow existing style instead of static_cast.
- Add a tool "tracy-edit" that allows loading a tracy capture, patching symbols and recompress the result
- Add offline symbol resolvers for linux (using addr2line) and windows (using dbghelper)
When using TRACY_MANUAL_LIFETIME, calling most Tracy functions
before starting the profiler results in an assertion. Notably, even
TracyIsConnected is affected. There is, however, no function to check if
the profiler had already started. This commit adds such a function.
We (Julia) ship both support for using tracy to trace julia applications,
as well as using `rr` (https://github.com/rr-debugger/rr) for record-replay debugging.
After our most recent rebuild of tracy, users have been reporting signfificant performance
slowdowns when `rr` recording a session that happens to also load the tracy library
(even if tracing is not enabled). Upon further examination, the recompile happened
to trigger a protective heuristic that disabled rr's patching of tracy's use of
`rdtsc` because an earlier part of the same function happened to look like a
conditional branch into the patch region. See https://github.com/rr-debugger/rr/pull/3580
for details. To avoid this issue occurring again in future rebuilds of tracy,
adjust tracy's `rdtsc` sequence to be `nopl; rdtsc`, which (as of of the
linked PR) is a sequence that is guaranteed to bypass this heuristic
and not incur the additional overhead when run under rr.
This functionality is kept behind a compile-time flag `TRACY_PATCHABLE_NOPSLEDS`
in order to avoid polluting the instruction cache unnecessarily.
The windows.h header file defines the macro max. If the max macro is include
it will lead to name collisions with the std::numeric_limits<T>::max() function.
One solution is to define NOMINMAX before the inclusion of windows.h.
However, that might be a demanding task for a large codebase. Defining the
NOMINMAX as global define may also break previous code.
Another to solution to the problem is to wrap the numeric_limits function in
parenthesis to instruct the compiler to treat it as a function and not a macro.
This commit wraps the std::numeric_limits<T>::max() calls in the public
interfacing header files, with parenthesis.
This compile-time flag was being ignored on Linux. This change adds
gating for software-sampled stack trace sampling following the same
pattern as other `TRACY_NO_SAMPLE_*` options.
If `TRACY_NO_SAMPLING=1` is provided as an environment variable,
software stack sampling is also disabled.
Previously on demand mode was determined by frame offset parameter being
greater than zero. However, if the application is not pumping frames with
FrameMark macro, the frame index will never increase and the frame offset
parameter stay at zero. It is not possible to distinguish on demand traces
from normal ones in this scenario.
Fix by explicitly saving the on demand flag in trace file and employ the
previous logic to set the flag when importing older traces.
There might have been new modules loaded by another thread between the `SymInitialize` and `EnumProcessModules` calls.
Since we register the enumerated modules into the cache, we need to make sure that symbols for this module are loaded.
The only way to do that is to call `SymLoadModuleEx`, just like we do when finding new modules after `InitCallstack`.

Red and blue channels were mislabeled. Otherwise, coding and decoding was
performed correctly, as far as the color channel order described in the manual
is followed by the user.
No change to the binary protocol was made.
These functions are only defined when -DTRACY_FIBERS is set. However,
the function is declared regardless of this declaration, which seems
like it could lead to obscure linking errors. I haven’t encountered any
of these specifically, but in my case, this distinction makes it more
difficult to produce correctly auto-generated bindings.
This fixes usage with TRACY_HAS_CALLSTACK undefined, allowing compilation of
otherwise unused functions, which are already protected from being called
through macro redirections.
See https://github.com/wolfpld/tracy/pull/492 for more information.
Provide a custom no-op implementation of dlclose(), in order to prevent shared
object data from disappearing from profiler view. The server makes queries for
program executable code, which has to be always available, otherwise wrong
data may be provided, or the program may crash, due to referencing no longer
mapped memory.
The dlclose() documentation states that the function internally decreases the
reference count, and only does unload the shared object when the count reaches
zero. There is no guarantee that the shared object data will be unloaded
immediately after any dlclose call originating from the program. This function
override exploits this fact.
Should the symbol thread crash, mark that it is gone. This will allow the
profiler to transmit crash call stack, including resolved symbol names and
locations (which will resolve on the main profiler thread).
DecodeCallstackPtrFast() may be called outside the symbol processing thread,
for example in the crash handler. Using the less-capable dladdr functionality
doesn't have a big impact here. Callstack decoding in this context is used to
remove the uninteresting top part of the callstack, so that the callstack ends
at the crashing function, and not in the crash handler. Even if this
functionality would be impacted by this change, the damage done is close to
none.
The other alternative is to use locking each time a libbacktrace is to be
used, which does not seem to be worthy to do, considering that the problem
only occurs in a very rare code path.
NB everything was working when it was first implemented, because back then the
callstack decoding was still performed on the main thread, and not on a
separate, dedicated one.
The profiled app might install handlers to track crashes, write minidumps,
etc. - this patch makes sure the app's exception handler is called when
a crash happens while profiling with Tracy.
