Thanks Mike it all starting to make sense. Another question in the below highlighted section is what does that branch address packet mean . Does it mean it was not a conditional jump but an exception jump?

For a fuller explanation see 4.5.4 of the PFT spec - but essentially branch packets are emitted whenever it is not possible to deduce a branch target / flow change from the code - i.e. exception, indirect branch, security state change.
Idx:16693; ID:1a; OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_INSTR_RANGE(exec
range=0x700137ec:[0x700137f4] num_i(2) last_sz(4) (ISA=A32) E iBR V7:impl ret)
In this case it would appear to be the target for the indirect branch here.

Hi Andrew,
Given the incorrect input information I would say that the output is consistent with the .axf you provide.

One of the facts about the range output I did not mention was that the range is inclusive -> exclusive. That is the last address is the next address we would expect instruction trace to continue from in the event of a branch not being taken / exception return etc.. (this is largely an artifact of the decode process that walks the memory image).
So the range above represents 3 instructions (num_i(3) executed starting at the instruction @0x7003a094, and ending at the instruction @0x7003a0a0 - last_sz(4) => 0x7003a09. The additional information tells us that the last instruction was a conditional branch (BR <cond>), the N atom means it is not taken:- 0x7003a094: e2844001 .@.. ADD r4,r4,#1 0x7003a098: e3540c01 ..T. CMP r4,#0x100 0x7003a09c: baffffeb .... BLT 0x7003a050 ; _Z6LookupPKc + 20
The next instruction to be executed will be @0x7004a0a0....
Idx:16720; ID:1a; [0xca 0xd0 0xd4 0xe0 0xea ]; ATOM : Atom packet; N;
Cycles=3582108930; Idx:16720; ID:1a; OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_INSTR_RANGE(exec range=0x7003a0a0:[0x7003a0b4] num_i(5) last_sz(4) (ISA=A32) N iBR b+link [CC=3582108930]; )
And here it is.
However - a work of caution - I do not beleive that the cycle count packets are real (if for no better reason than I do not think it takes 3582108930 cycles to execute 5 instructions)
Idx:16725; ID:1a; [0xc2 0xd4 0xc4 0xe8 0xca ]; ATOM : Atom packet; N; Cycles=2510431552;
If we assume there is no cycle counting going on then this 5 byte sequence is:- 0xc2 - atom EEEEN 0xd4 -atom ENENE 0xc4 atom EEENE 0xe8 atom NENEE 0xca atom EENEN
So while the decode is consistent ,it cannot be correct if the input data is faulty.
Idx:16725; ID:1a; OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_INSTR_RANGE(exec range=0x7003a0b4:[0x7003a0d0] num_i(7) last_sz(4) (ISA=A32) N iBR b+link [CC=2510431552]; ) Idx:16730; ID:1a; [0xd0 0xd4 0xe0 0xea 0xc2 ]; ATOM : Atom packet; E; Cycles=2242577732; Idx:16730; ID:1a; OCSD_GEN_TRC_ELEM_INSTR_RANGE(exec range=0x7003a0d0:[0x7003a0d8] num_i(2) last_sz(4) (ISA=A32) E BR [CC=2242577732]; ) Idx:16736; ID:1a; [0xd4 0xc4 0xe8 0xca 0xd0 ]; ATOM : Atom packet; E; Cycles=2703967301; DCD_PTM_0026 : 0x001c (OCSD_ERR_RET_STACK_OVERFLOW) [Internal return stack overflow checks failed - popped more than we pushed.]; TrcIdx=16736; CS ID=1a; Return stack error processing atom packet.Trace Packet Lister : Data Path fatal error 0x001c (OCSD_ERR_RET_STACK_OVERFLOW) [Internal return stack overflow checks failed - popped more than we pushed.]; TrcIdx=16736; CS ID=1a; Return stack error processing atom packet.Trace Packet Lister : Trace buffer done, processed 16752 bytes.
Here we have a problem with the return stack overflowing - this could be caused if the return stack is not actually active within the trace, or the fact that the packets are not being correctly interpreted throwing off the return stack functionality
so - ETMCR is probably wrong. Try changing it so cycle count is not active.

MegaRAID provided an initial sample dump, I pulled up their ini files and made modifications to match our app.axf. I added only a few regions (that I felt were applicable) in the app.axf. (Comments in *bold red*).
The rest of the ini files are just references to configuring the names of the ini.
When I run the trc_pkt_lister I don't see any difference to my output (from before I made the changes).
Did you add the -decode option to the command line?
*cpu_0.ini* [device] name=cpu_0 class=core type=Cortex-A15
*ajh - There are 17 sections in the app.axf, but only a few regions that contain code. I just copied 3 of those sections into the dump regions. Do I need more? Also, this seems like it can be pulled from the axf using the fromelf app. Do I need to write a script to do this or does something already exist?*
Hard to say if these areas will completely cover the area traced - however, the decoder will output partial trace range packets when the addresses match the dump files. If trace goes out of range for the memory dumps then NACC packets will be output for the unknown addresses. I would start with these and see how far the decoder gets. Looking at a few of the addresses in the dump file they do seem to be in the range of the dump files you specify.
[dump0] file=app.axf address=0x70004194 length=0x3077d4 offset=0x41c8
[dump1] file=app.axf address=0x7f100000 length=0x8e0 offset=0x34
[dump2] file=app.axf address=0x7f1008e0 length=0x4a0 offset=0x914
*ajh - I don't know what to provide in regs? What is this needed for and what registers are pertinent?* [regs] R15=0 CPSR=0x4000003F
For trace - these regs are not needed. They are used if loading the snapshot into other tools.
*device_1.ini* *ajh - I didn't make any changes to this file, are these the coresight registers at 0x06180_0000 (Avengers CPU0 coresight block).*
Can't comment on your specific system but these are the CoreSight PFT registers as defined in the PFT specification.
[device] name=PTM_0 class=trace_source type=PTM1.1
[regs] ETMCR(0x0)=0x3000D400
This value indicates that cycle accurate trace is being generated - if this does not match your system then this could explain the strange cycle counts. Also return stack and timestamp tracing are active & a 32 bit context ID are being traced.
All these parameters affect how the decoder interprets the trace packets. This value must reflect the value of this register at the time trace was collected.

Mike
