<p>The basic command for selecting a trace snapshot from the buffer is
|
||
|
|
<code>tfind <var>n</var></code>, which finds trace snapshot number <var>n</var>,
|
||
|
|
counting from zero. If no argument <var>n</var> is given, the next
|
||
|
|
snapshot is selected.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Here are the various forms of using the <code>tfind</code> command.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<dl compact="compact">
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind start</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Find the first snapshot in the buffer. This is a synonym for
|
||
|
|
<code>tfind 0</code> (since 0 is the number of the first snapshot).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind none</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Stop debugging trace snapshots, resume <em>live</em> debugging.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind end</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Same as ‘<samp>tfind none</samp>’.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>No argument means find the next trace snapshot or find the first
|
||
|
|
one if no trace snapshot is selected.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind -</code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Find the previous trace snapshot before the current one. This permits
|
||
|
|
retracing earlier steps.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind tracepoint <var>num</var></code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Find the next snapshot associated with tracepoint <var>num</var>. Search
|
||
|
|
proceeds forward from the last examined trace snapshot. If no
|
||
|
|
argument <var>num</var> is given, it means find the next snapshot collected
|
||
|
|
for the same tracepoint as the current snapshot.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind pc <var>addr</var></code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Find the next snapshot associated with the value <var>addr</var> of the
|
||
|
|
program counter. Search proceeds forward from the last examined trace
|
||
|
|
snapshot. If no argument <var>addr</var> is given, it means find the next
|
||
|
|
snapshot with the same value of PC as the current snapshot.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind outside <var>addr1</var>, <var>addr2</var></code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Find the next snapshot whose PC is outside the given range of
|
||
|
|
addresses (exclusive).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind range <var>addr1</var>, <var>addr2</var></code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Find the next snapshot whose PC is between <var>addr1</var> and
|
||
|
|
<var>addr2</var> (inclusive).
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
</dd>
|
||
|
|
<dt><code>tfind line <span class="roman">[</span><var>file</var>:<span class="roman">]</span><var>n</var></code></dt>
|
||
|
|
<dd><p>Find the next snapshot associated with the source line <var>n</var>. If
|
||
|
|
the optional argument <var>file</var> is given, refer to line <var>n</var> in
|
||
|
|
that source file. Search proceeds forward from the last examined
|
||
|
|
trace snapshot. If no argument <var>n</var> is given, it means find the
|
||
|
|
next line other than the one currently being examined; thus saying
|
||
|
|
<code>tfind line</code> repeatedly can appear to have the same effect as
|
||
|
|
stepping from line to line in a <em>live</em> debugging session.
|
||
|
|
</p></dd>
|
||

|
</dl>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The default arguments for the <code>tfind</code> commands are specifically
|
||
|
|
designed to make it easy to scan through the trace buffer. For
|
||
|
|
instance, <code>tfind</code> with no argument selects the next trace
|
||
|
|
snapshot, and <code>tfind -</code> with no argument selects the previous
|
||
|
|
trace snapshot. So, by giving one <code>tfind</code> command, and then
|
||
|
|
simply hitting <tt class="key">RET</tt> repeatedly you can examine all the trace
|
||
|
|
snapshots in order. Or, by saying <code>tfind -</code> and then hitting
|
||
|
|
<tt class="key">RET</tt> repeatedly you can examine the snapshots in reverse order.
|
||
|
|
The <code>tfind line</code> command with no argument selects the snapshot
|
||
|
|
for the next source line executed. The <code>tfind pc</code> command with
|
||
|
|
no argument selects the next snapshot with the same program counter
|
||
|
|
(PC) as the current frame. The <code>tfind tracepoint</code> command with
|
||
|
|
no argument selects the next trace snapshot collected by the same
|
||
|
|
tracepoint as the current one.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>In addition to letting you scan through the trace buffer manually,
|
||
|
|
these commands make it easy to construct <small>GDB</small> scripts that
|
||
|
|
scan through the trace buffer and print out whatever collected data
|
||
|
|
you are interested in. Thus, if we want to examine the PC, FP, and SP
|
||
|
|
registers from each trace frame in the buffer, we can say this:
