Hi Does anyone has experience profiling OpenOCD and can share the experience, i.e. tools etc?
The reason for asking is the driver that I am developing, aji_client (https://github.com/intel/aji_openocd) is slow under some circumstances. Good news is those circumstances are consistently reproducible. I want to use profiling tool to identify the bottleneck and where I have to make improvement to my driver. The conventional wisdom is to run a profiling tool over the workload to get a picture of which functions take the longest time, the bottleneck etc instead of stabbing in the dark for solution. I tried gprof (1) and sprof (2) and are having issues with them. See notes. Many thanks in advance and best regards Cinly Note: 1. gprof might be the wrong tool to use as my driver calls shared library libaji_client.so (https://github.com/intel/libaji_client), which for this task I need to profile as well. Chatter on the internet says gprof cannot handle shared library 2. sprof is giving me problems. I did not manage to get it to work for anything more complex than a simple toy program.
