Context switch samples were appended in arrival order. Samples which
were postponed due to missing context switch data are replayed after
newer samples were already classified, so the vector could become
unordered. Everything that reads it assumes time order: the wait stacks
range filter, the sampling statistics percentage denominator, and the
context switch sample filters in the trace load jobs. In the load jobs
an unordered vector could silently disable the filtering for the rest
of a thread, reintroducing the context switch samples into the symbol
and child sample maps.
Use a SortedVector and restore the ordering at the points where it can
break: after the postponed sample replay and when saving a trace. The
save file version is bumped, so that the sort order check on load is
only performed for traces saved by previous versions.
This provides some instructions and tips for the manual. Also:
* Made the calibration feature a CMake option
* Cleaned up some minor code issues
* Fixed an issue with the calibration
* Incremented patch number
This value is not used for anything, it was just a number displayed in
the UI without much meaning to anyone.
Operations on the queue during early init may not work correctly, stopping
some programs from running past the calibration loop.
This PR does the following things:
- Allow to lock the highlighted thread using left mouse click or lane popup menu
- Add more descriptions for wait reasons in View::DecodeContextSwitchReason
- Stores the Wakeup CPU so that we may display it in the CPU data view
- `QueueThreadWakeup` now contains cpu and adjust info (currently unused). Fits in the padding, no struct size change.
- `QueueContextSwitch` now also contains thread priorities information (windows+linux) and CState (windows), but currently unused by the profiler. Fits in the padding, no struct size change.
- Fixes Linux `EventWakeup` which tries to remove PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN on the wrong member. Set the whole `perf_event_attr` explicitely instead.
- Fixes Windows ReadyThread event being dropped if triggered before the thread switches out (this is confirmed to be normal behaviour, probably due to thread being switched out but context switch actually happening later)
- Bumps tracy file version and protocol versions
Previously on demand mode was determined by frame offset parameter being
greater than zero. However, if the application is not pumping frames with
FrameMark macro, the frame index will never increase and the frame offset
parameter stay at zero. It is not possible to distinguish on demand traces
from normal ones in this scenario.
Fix by explicitly saving the on demand flag in trace file and employ the
previous logic to set the flag when importing older traces.
