Understanding Traces
yk can print the traces it has created to stderr to help with debugging.
However, these traces are often lengthy, and not always easy to understand.
This section briefly explains how to get yk to print its traces, and how
to make them a bit easier to understand.
Producing a trace
YKD_LOG_IR
YKD_LOG_IR=<path>:<irstage_1>[,...,<irstage_n>] logs IR from different stages
to path. The special value - (i.e. a single dash) can be used for <path>
to indicate stderr.
The following ir_stages are supported:
aot: the entire AOT IR for the interpreter.jit-pre-opt: the JIT IR trace before optimisation.jit-post-opt: the JIT IR trace after optimisation.jit-asm: the assembler code of the compiled JIT IR trace.
