# Paraver trace
|
||
|
|
||
|
Paraver traces are handled by the top level module `pvt` (Paraver trace), which
|
||
|
in turn uses the `prv`, `pcf` and `prf` to control the trace events, type
|
||
|
definitions and row names (in that order).
|
||
|
|
||
|
Traces must be initialized with the number of rows and a name by calling
|
||
|
`pvt_open()`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The emulation time must be updated with `pvt_advance()` prior to emitting any
|
||
|
event, so they get the update clock in the trace.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Connecting channels
|
||
|
|
||
|
A channel can be connected to each row in a trace with `prv_register()`, so the
|
||
|
new values of the channel get written in the trace. Only null and int64 data
|
||
|
values are supported for now.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Duplicated values cause an error by default, unless the channel is registered
|
||
|
with the flag `PRV_DUP`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The emission phase is controlled by the [patch bay](../patchbay) and runs all
|
||
|
the emit callbacks at once for all dirty channels.
