ARM - RealView Development Suite 4.0 Pro service pack 2

ARM has released the RealView Development Suite 4.0 Pro service pack 2, which features Linux application trace and profiling with the ARM Profiler.

The ARM Profiler facilitates the optimization of Linux applications with innovative analysis views:
· Software profiling graphs showing processor time and memory accesses per thread, function and instruction
· Call chain tree highlighting the interactions between threads, functions and shared objects and libraries

Code view showing the instruction by instruction execution of applications with re-play capability The ARM Profiler collects information from the target in a non-intrusive way via ETM trace. This creates views that provide a fully accurate representation of the code execution.

The ARM Profiler is now able to automatically calibrate the timing of all the signals on the target’s trace port. Auto-calibration enables the Profiler to collect trace at the maximum speed supported by the target and adjust to changes in processor speed.
