To collect the profile data of the user and upper-layer framework applications, instrument the code using msproftx APIs before enabling the tool.

API Overview

**Table 1** APIs
API	Description
acl.prof.create_stamp	Creates a msproftx event stamp for an instantaneous event.
acl.prof.set_stamp_trace_message	Sets the description in a msproftx event stamp, which is displayed in the parsed msprof_tx summary data of the Profiling tool.
acl.prof.mark	Marks an instantaneous event by msproftx.
acl.prof.push	Records the start time of the time span by msproftx when an event occurs. It is used with acl.prof.pop in pairs and can be used only in a single thread.
acl.prof.pop	Records the end time of the time span by msproftx when an event occurs. It is used with acl.prof.push in pairs and can be used only in a single thread.
acl.prof.range_start	Records the start time of the time span by msproftx when an event occurs. It is used with acl.prof.range_stop in pairs and can be used across threads.
acl.prof.range_stop	Records the end time of the time span by msproftx when an event occurs. It is used with acl.prof.range_start in pairs and can be used across threads.
acl.prof.destroy_stamp	Destroys a msproftx event stamp.

API Call Examples

The following is the sample code of the msproftx Profiling API:

Example 1

for i in range(200000):
    stamp = acl.prof.create_stamp()
    if stamp == 0:
        print("stamp is nullptr")
        return FAILED

    msg = "test msprof tx"
    msg_len = len(msg)
    ret = acl.prof.set_stamp_trace_message(stamp, msg, msg_len)
    ret = acl.prof.mark(stamp)

    ret = acl.prof.destroy_stamp(stamp)

Example 2

for i in range(200000):
    stamp = acl.prof.create_stamp()
    if stamp == 0:
        print("stamp is nullptr")
        return FAILED

    msg = "test msprof tx"
    msg_len = len(msg)
    ret = acl.prof.set_stamp_trace_message(stamp, msg, msg_len)

# The acl.prof.push and acl.prof.pop APIs are used in pairs to complete single-thread profiling.
    ret = acl.prof.push(stamp)
    ret = acl.prof.pop()

    ret = acl.prof.destroy_stamp(stamp)

Example 3

for i in range(200000):
    stamp = acl.prof.create_stamp()
    if stamp == 0:
        print("stamp is nullptr")
        return FAILED

    msg = "test msprof tx"
    msg_len = len(msg)
    ret = acl.prof.set_stamp_trace_message(stamp, msg, msg_len)

# The acl.prof.range_start and acl.prof.range_stop APIs are used in pairs to complete multi-thread profiling.
    range_id = 0
    range_id, ret = acl.prof.range_start(stamp)
    ret = acl.prof.range_stop(range_id)

    ret = acl.prof.destroy_stamp(stamp)

msproftx APIs are called within the main function.
