Making Software Performance Measurements
To initialize activity performance measurements
Examples
Suppose the "addr_ranges" file contains the names of all the functions in the
"ecs" demo program loop:
combsort
do_sort
gen_ascii_data
get_targets
graph_data
interrupt_sim
proc_specific
read_conditions
save_points
set_outputs
strcpy8
update_system
write_hdwr
Since these labels are program symbols, you do not have to specify the
address range associated with each label; the SPMT will search the symbol
database for the addresses of each label.
An easy way to create the "addr_ranges" file is to use the copy
global_symbols command to copy the global symbols to a file named
"addr_ranges"; then, fork a shell to UNIX (by entering "! <RETURN>" on the
Softkey Interface command line) and edit the file so that it contains the
procedure names shown above. Enter a <CTRL>d at the UNIX prompt to
return to the Softkey Interface.
To initialize the activity measurement with a user-defined address range file:
