Hi.
I'm trying to trace a running app to figure out what call stack it's
embarking on that's making it behave undesirably. I'm looking for a
tool, kind of like ktrace, but one that will give me application calls.
I know Shark and Saturn exist, but I'm not sure they're the right tool
for the job, as I don't want a profile, but rather a callstack for a
snapshot in time. Can anyone make any suggestions?
Shark will give you a callstack.
Either do a time profile during the behaviour you don't like, or if you
know the (mangled) name of a function (or functions) it's calling during
the problem you can do a Function trace for it.
When you have collected the data switch to the tree view to see a
top-down callstack.
