LTTng (Linux Trace Toolkit Next Generation) is a system software package for correlated tracing of the Linux kernel, applications and libraries. LTTng consists of kernel modules (for Linux kernel tracing) and dynamically linked libraries (for application and library tracing). It is controlled by a session daemon, which receives commands from a command line interface, lttng. The Babeltrace project allows translating traces into a human-readable log, and provides a trace reading library, libbabeltrace. LTTng uses the Tracepoint instrumentation of the Linux kernel, as well as various other information sources such as kprobes, and the Perf performance monitoring counters. It is useful for debugging a wide range of bugs that are otherwise extremely challenging. These include, for example, performance problems on parallel systems and on real-time systems. Custom instrumentation is easy to add. LTTng is designed for minimal performance impact and has a near zero impact when not tracing. LTTng has at least basic support for all Linux-supported architectures (see the LTTng-modules README file for more details). LTTng is available as a set of packages (). Major users include Google, IBM, Autodesk, Siemens, Nokia, Sony and Ericsson. It is included in Wind River Workbench, Mentor Graphics Mentor Embedded Linux, ELinOS embedded Linux, MontaVista Mobilinux 5.0, STLinux and SUSE Linux Enterprise Real-Time Linux distributions. Once collected, multiple solutions exist to process and visualize LTTng trace data (kernel and userspace) such as the open-source LTTV viewer, Eclipse (Trace Compass ) or commercial tools such as Mentor Graphics' Sourcery Analyzer and (Percepio Tracealyzer ). LTTng-modules, LTTng-UST, LTTng-tools and Babeltrace are actively developed by an open community. ==See also== *Kernel marker *Tracepoint *SystemTap *strace *DTrace 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「LTTng」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
