Abstract

Logrind 2 is a set of tools for capturing and analysing program traces called Logrind 2. The tools are implemented as add-ons to the popular Valgrind and GDB debugging tools. Program traces are captured using dynamic instrumentation and stored in a relational database. Logrind 2 provides support for pretty-printing these traces in a clear and understandable format. The toolset also includes an extended SQL query language that ranges over program traces. Other tools may interface with Logrind 2 using this query language. The program trace schema supports multiple sources and can be used to compare runs of a program. Logrind 2 supports random access navigation of program traces using the concept of a program trace ‘cursor’. Users may use this feature to examine the historical state of a process.
