Guidelines

Recommendations for using Caliper.

  • The expected usage is that you will only have a few regions enabled at any one time.

    Note

    The Application activity graph displays the deepest enabled region in any stacks to display.

  • Only the default Caliper channel is sampled by Linaro MAP.

  • Neither Linaro MAP or Caliper propagate Caliper attributes set on the main thread to OpenMP worker threads when entering an OpenMP parallel region.

Next steps

Right-click on a region in the Regions tab to access further options. From here you can:

  • Enable or disable all regions at once.

  • Automatically reassign colors to regions based on the percentage of time in each in the current selected time range.

  • Copy a text representation of the tab, or export it to a file.
