Performance measurement tool for OMAP35x DVSDK?

From a Linux perspective you can use the typical Linux performance tools such as top, though this does not cover the DSP loading. With the current beta DVSDK the SoC analyzer used in our other heterogenous platforms (Davinci) is not yet supported, though I believe support for the SoC analyzer will be added in a future OMAP3 DVSDK release.

EDIT: Looking back someone else was looking for tracing capability, as I mentioned the current trace capability is limited in the SDK but should be added onto in future releases. I do not know of any plans to support a full LTT.

Thanks for the response. It's good to know that furture versions of DVSDK will have the SoC analyzer supported. Do you have a rough estimate as to when that will happen?

Unfortunately I don't have a very solid estimate, there was just recently a second beta released so at the earliest I would expect a few months, but I am not sure when it will make it in to the DVSDK.

Hi Bernie, did you mean there was a DVSDK Beta 2 released? If so, where can I download it? The downloading site from which I got DVSDK Beta 1 apparantly stopped working.

You are correct, a newer beta release was made, you should be able to get it through www.ti.com/omapregistration, though it appears that the site is currently down, once it is up again that is where you should be able to get it, unfortunately I do not have an alternative download location.
