DETAILS
The UIAAppCtx module defines context change events
and methods that allow tooling to identify application context
switches and to enable application-aware filtering, trace and
analysis.
It inherits IUIACtx, which defines a function pointer to
an isLoggingEnabled function which, if configured to point to
a function, will evaluate the function prior to logging the context
change event and will determine whether to log the event based on the
return value of the function. If the function is not configured,
logging will be conditional upon ti_uia_runtime_CtxFilter_gIsLoggingEnabled.
The generation of UIAAppCtx events is also controlled by a module's diagnostics
mask, which is described in details in
xdc.runtime.Diags.
UIAAppCtx events are generated only when the Diags.ANALYSIS bit is set
in the module's diagnostics mask.
The following configuration script demonstrates how the application might
control the logging of ANALYSIS events embedded in the Mod module at configuration
time. In this case, the configuration script arranges for the Log
statements within modules to always generate ANALYSIS events.
Without these configuration statements, no ANALYSIS events would be generated
by any modules.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: This is part of the XDC configuration file for the application:
var LogCtxChg = xdc.useModule('ti.uia.runtime.LogCtxChg');
var Diags = xdc.useModule('xdc.runtime.Diags');
var LoggerSys = xdc.useModule('xdc.runtime.LoggerSys');
var Defaults = xdc.useModule('xdc.runtime.Defaults');
var logger = LoggerSys.create();
Defaults.common$.diags_ANALYSIS = Diags.ALWAYS_ON;
Defaults.common$.logger = logger;
Example 2: The following example configures a module to support logging
of ANALYSIS events, but defers the actual activation and deactivation of the
logging until runtime. See the
Diags_setMask()
function for details on specifying the control string.
This is a part of the XDC configuration file for the application:
var LogCtxChg = xdc.useModule('ti.uia.runtime.LogCtxChg');
var Diags = xdc.useModule('xdc.runtime.Diags');
var Mod = xdc.useModule('my.pkg.Mod');
Mod.common$.diags_ANALYSIS = Diags.RUNTIME_OFF;
This is a part of the C code for the application:
// turn on logging of ANALYSIS events in the module
Diags_setMask("my.pkg.Mod+Z");
// turn off logging of ANALYSIS events in the module
Diags_setMask("my.pkg.Mod-Z");
typedef UIAAppCtx_IsLoggingEnabledFxn |

typedef Bool (*UIAAppCtx_IsLoggingEnabledFxn)(Int);
config UIAAppCtx_ENABLEMASK // module-wide |
 |
Ctx Filter Enable Mask
extern const Bits16 UIAAppCtx_ENABLEMASK;
DETAILS
configures which bit of the ti_uia_runtime_CtxFilter_gFlags
is assigned to control context aware filtering for
frame context changes. Must be configured with a
value that is 2**SYNCID.
config UIAAppCtx_SYNCID // module-wide |
 |
Trace Synchronization ID
extern const Bits16 UIAAppCtx_SYNCID;
DETAILS
configures the value to be written into the
4 bit context change type field used by the
UIASync trace synchronization
config UIAAppCtx_ctxChg // module-wide |
 |
Application ID Context Change event
VALUES
fmt
a constant string that describes the context change and provides a format specifier for newAppId
newAppId
an integer which uniquely identifies the new application context
DETAILS
Used to log switching to a new application.
Note that this event should not be referenced directly by user code - it is used
internally by the LogCtxChg_app function, which logs the previous app Id automatically.
EXAMPLE
The following C code shows how to log a Context Change
event that identifies a newly loaded application ID
#include <ti/uia/runtime/LogCtxChg.h>
...
Void loadApplication(Int newAppId){
...
LogCtxChg_app("New AppID=0x%x",newAppId);
...
}
This event prints the Log call site (%$F) and a format string (%$S)
which is recursively formatted with any addition arguments.
The following text is an example of what will be displayed for the event:
"AppID Ctx Change at Line 123 in appLoader.c [Prev. AppID = 0x1234] New AppID=0x1235"
config UIAAppCtx_isLoggingEnabledFxn // module-wide |
 |
UIAAppCtx_getCtxId() // module-wide |
 |
Get the ID for the current channel
macro Int UIAAppCtx_getCtxId();
RETURNS
returns the thread ID logged by the last call to UIAAppCtx_logCtxChg.
UIAAppCtx_isLoggingEnabled() // module-wide |
 |
returns true if the new context matches the value to enable logging with
Bool UIAAppCtx_isLoggingEnabled(UInt newAppId);
ARGUMENTS
newChanId
the new channel ID
DETAILS
Default implementation of the IUIACtx_IsLoggingEnabledFxn for user context.
To enable context-aware filtering, assign UIAAppCtx_isLoggingEnabledFxn = &UIAAppCtx_isLoggingEnabled
in the config script or programmatically, or assign your own implementation of this
function.
RETURNS
true if logging is enabled
UIAAppCtx_setOldValue() // module-wide |
 |
sets the ti_uia_events_UIAAppCtx_gLastValue to the new value and returns the old value before it was updated
UInt UIAAppCtx_setOldValue(UInt newValue);
ARGUMENTS
newValue
the new value to save in the global variable
(return0 the original value of the global variable before it was updated.
