Multi-core debugging and tracing made possible by a single debugging system.

Unlimited multicore debugging is possible even with the most complex chips.

◆ Efficient Debugging & Tracing of Popular Multi-Core Systems As various multi-core systems, including homogeneous and heterogeneous cores, become more widespread, software development becomes increasingly challenging as the systems grow in complexity. ◆ With TRACE32 - It is possible to debug and trace applications, operating systems, hypervisors, and other software running on multiple cores on a multi-core system. - More than 150 cores can be debugged, regardless of whether they are homogeneous, heterogeneous, or a combination of both. - It also supports debugging of complex heterogeneous multi-chip systems composed of two or more SoCs. ◆ TRACE32's Proposal In complex systems such as multi-core, traditional Go/Break debugging may be insufficient. Lauterbach suggests utilizing off-chip tracing for such debugging. Off-chip tracing allows for the tracing of multi-core operations without interfering with the running application, enabling all data to be recorded on high-capacity memory on the tracing hardware or streamed to a host, which aids in analyzing the causes of defects and improves development efficiency.

basic information

◆Debugging a mix of over 150 supported core architectures Simultaneously debug cores of different architectures through a single debug interface and a single debug probe. ◆Parallel debugging and synchronized debugging with AMP By controlling the synchronized execution of all cores in the AMP system, debug cores of different architectures simultaneously. ◆Simplifying debugging of many-core systems Using our uniquely developed iAMP approach (Integrated Asymmetric MultiProcessing), debug an SMP-compatible CPU cluster with a single GUI, synchronizing the execution control of all cores. ◆Real-time tracing of heterogeneous and homogeneous multicore systems Using a mix of heterogeneous or homogeneous processor architectures, simultaneously record traces from multiple cores on the same trace port.
