1 Inviso Release Notes
This document describes the changes made to the Inviso application.
1.1 Inviso 0.4
1.1.1 Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
-
A bug in inviso_rt_meta caused an ETS table containing
information on initiated (init_tpm) functions to be lost
when suspending tracing. Further an enhancement to
inviso_rt has been introduced making it possible to
activate process trace flags based on globally registered
names. It is then not an error to activate a global name
on a node where the name does not reside. The process
count in the return value will simply be set to zero
(hence exactly one node in the NodeResult part of the
return value will indicate one matching process found). A
bug was found in fetch_log API. At the same time the
fetch_log functionality was enhanced to also offer flow
control making fetcher processes send chunks of
transferred file data at a slower pace.

1.4 Inviso 0.2
1.4.1 Fixed Bugs and Malfunctions
-
This ticket includes several improvements and bugfixes to
both runtime_tools and inviso. The overload mechanism can
now also react to incomming messages. This is useful if
an external overload watch-dog is used. Some improvements
of variable bindings has been done to the default
autostart mechanism - inviso_autostart_server. Autostart
"jobs" can now be done in paralell, allowing for some
jobs to hang waiting for some parts of the traced system
to become ready before proceeding. Previously when using
named meta-match-specs (tpm_ms) ending up with zero
match-specs still kept the meta trace pattern active.
This caused zero match-specs to be equal to unlimited
meta tracing on that particular function. If the internal
database becomes empty of meta match specs, meta trace
pattern is removed for that function. Standard public
loop data in the inviso runtime meta tracer process is
now extended to a 2-tuple. The functions ctp/1 and ctpl/1
are added making it possible to remove trace patterns for
a list of functions rather than one by one.
Inviso_rt_meta will now accept a list of binaries to be
output into the trace information file, in additions to a
single binary. Further it is also possible to make own
output to the trace information file using the write_ti/1
function. An error was discovered in inviso_rt making the
inviso_rt_meta remain rather than terminate if the
inviso_rt terminated due to "running alone" (not allowed
to run without a control component). A new tool,
inviso_tool, has been added to the inviso application.
