## Requirements
|
|
|
|
One of the tracing backends Monado has is [Tracy][]. Note, that the backend is
|
|
fully integrated so you only need to make sure that the correct CMake flags are
|
|
set, `XRT_HAVE_TRACY` and `XRT_FEATURE_TRACING`. Building the [Tracy][] profiler
|
|
is also required, but the order doesn't matter.
|
|
|
|
* Get the [Tracy][] profiler.
|
|
* **Linux**: build it, needs `glfw3`, `freetype2` & `capstone` dev packages.
|
|
* **Windows**: download release binaries from page, or build it.
|
|
* Build Monado with `XRT_FEATURE_TRACING` & `XRT_HAVE_TRACY` being `ON`.
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
Start the [Tracy][] profiler, either try to connect directly to the host you
|
|
want to run Monado on, or wait for it to show up in the first initial UI. Then
|
|
run Monado like you normally would, for example as follows.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
monado-serivce
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
Unlike @ref tracing-perfetto Tracy supports Windows, it also supports live
|
|
viewing of the data stream. But Tracy can only trace one application at a time,
|
|
whereas Perfetto can do multiple processes at the same time and whole system
|
|
tracing, giving a higher level overview of the whole system.
