Tracing cascaded data is similar to
trace stream data. Cascade data analysis in the Trace view allows you to cross probe from a specific
input/output cascade connection in the Graph view to the appropriate position in the
Event Trace view. You can
trace cascade input data as it is being received during the kernel execution. To perform
data analysis on a cascade interface, use the following steps.
- The following image shows a kernel port that has been selected in the Graph view. The selected port is highlighted both in the Graph view and in the ports table at bottom of the window.
- Switch to the Trace view to the events and detailed event timing.
- View the data associated with the selected input port.
- Put the cursor in the timeline of the Trace view. In the events table to view data in
DATA
column.
Using these steps, you can inspect I/O data
for the required cascade connections to ensure the correctness of the I/O data to and
from a kernel.
