10
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Afternoon Session Hear use cases How to see shared object dependencies: file, ldd, cat /proc/ /maps How to trace system calls: man strace (x86-64); man truss (rs6000) How to drop a useful core file: limit coredumpsize unlimited, ulimit -c unlimited, ^\ How to determine your TotalView version: -V How to start with a clean slate: rm -f –r \ ~/.{memscape,preferences.tvd,totalview,tvworkbench} \ {~,.}/.tvdrc How to get TV to display your source: $tree()
11
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Afternoon Session (Continued) How to stop TV before the stack is unwound: ifort: for__issue_diagnostic How to catch a Nan: CDWP(C, $double, 8 bytes): if ($is_nan($newval)) $stop How to catch heap corruption How to quickly return to a location of interest: $count How to trace a variable (x86-64) printf("#"); fflush( (void *) 0); How to display an array using an array of indices Ask Jeff about UPDD.
12
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Afternoon Session (Continued) How to present memory leaks to a library provider How to check instantaneous memory changes (x86-64) printf("\nTV node ID: %d, PID: %d\n",$nid,$pid); malloc_stats() How to reconstruct an incomplete stack trace How to find missing subroutine arguments and locals Beginning to use the CLI: help Discovering how to get TV to accept an expression
