RTEdbg is an open-source toolkit designed as a lightweight alternative to commercial solutions like Tracealyzer and SystemView. It is highly versatile, supporting both RTOS instrumentation and custom user-defined events. A practical implementation example for FreeRTOS can be found at RTEdbg Trace Demo.
The toolkit offers:
-
Flexible Instrumentation: Tailor the data collection to your specific needs without heavy overhead.
-
Customizable Visualization: Create a virtually unlimited number of data views to analyze the runtime behavior of your embedded system.
Thanks to community contributions, tracing can be ported to virtually any RTOS.
