He is in Sydney and will likely comment once he is awake. :) I gave a presentation at the Flight Software Workshop in 2014 on the RTEMS ecosystem. Tracing was included in that presentation and Chris helped with the slides. The slides are here: http://flightsoftware.jhuapl.edu/files/2014/Presentations/Day-2/Session-3/2-RTEMSProjectEcosystem.pdf There is a video of my presentation if you want to see it. But this presentation covers the background and status. > I have gone through Getting Started documentation and setup RTEMS on my > machine. I have tried running the provided examples.

But I know there is work to be done on generation of method trace wrappers, getting trace data off target (tcp/ip, etc), and producing Common Trace Format and integrating with the Linux Trace Toolkit. My understanding is that the Linux Trace Toolkit can also dynamically interact (bidirectionally) with the target system. I don't know what that entails but it is desirable. But it requires having basic integration solved first. I hope that helps. --joel > Regards, > > Vivek > > > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list > devel@rtems.org > http://lists.rtems.org/mailman/listinfo/devel >
