ROCprof Trace Decoder

Description

A plugin library for rocprofiler-sdk: https://github.com/rocm/rocprofiler-sdk

Thread trace is a profiling method that provides fine-grained insight into GPU kernel execution by collecting detailed traces of shader instructions executed by the GPU. This feature captures GPU occupancy, instruction execution times, fast performance counters, and other detailed performance data. Thread trace utilizes GPU hardware instrumentation to record events as they happen, resulting in precise timing information about wave (threads) execution behavior.

This library is responsible for transforming thread trace binary data (.att) into a tool consumable format.

Usage

rocprofv3 tool

rocprofv3 --att -- ./a.out

By default, rocprofv3 searches LD_LIBRARY_PATH and the rocprofiler-sdk install location, normally /opt/rocm/lib. For custom install locations, use

rocprofv3 --att --att-library-path /path/to/lib -- ./a.out

For information on how to generate thread trace data, see the documentation on using rocprofv3 to collect thread trace

Rocprofiler-sdk API

Rocprofiler-sdk requires the library path to be provided at resource creation:

rocprofiler_thread_trace_decoder_handle_t decoder{};
# Notes: Passing null string "" searches in LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Passing nullptr is not allowed.
auto status = rocprofiler_thread_trace_decoder_create(&decoder, "/opt/rocm/lib");

For more API information, see the SDK API headers
