S2sinstrument

The STRIDE Instrumentation Utility

The s2sinstrument executable generates instrumentation code, also known as IM, or intercept module code. It is a command line utility that accepts the following input:

• database (.sidb) file (output from s2sbind)
• intercept module name
• C/C++ code files, output location and C header files output location
• a set of configuration options

The resulting output files will be generated:

• a prototype header file <im_name>IM.h
• implementation files <im_name>IM.c(pp) and <im_name>IMEmtry.h
• a read-me file <im_name>IMReadMe.txt.

Syntax

   s2sinstrument [options] database_file

Options

Option	Description
--version	Print version information.
--im_name=<string>	The intercept module name. The default is the base name of the database file.
--im_suffix=<string>	The intercept module file name suffix. The default is "IM".
--code_output=<path>	The location of the generated C or C++ files. The default is the current directory.
--header_output=<path>	The location of the generated header files and text (read me) file. The default is the current directory.
--strip_path	When present, the path information from include directives will be striped.
--disable_access_class	When present, all interface SUIDs will be explicitly registered instead of using access class registration.
--suppress_exception_handling	When present, C++ exceptions would not be handled as errors.
--prototype=<tag>	Generate only prototype header files. <tag> is a unique tag that would be appended to the prototype header file name.
--implement	Generate only implementation files.
--default_mode=<mode>	Optional. When present, sets the default generation mode. If not present the <mode> is assumed to be "I" for intercept-able functions (see scl_function for details) and "S" for all others. The format of the <mode> is "SPI[T]", where: "S" – stub "P" – proxy "I" – intercept "T" – trace To set the default mode to NOP (do nothing) set its value to "" (empty). Allowed combinations: S P I T x         x         x     x x       x x   x x x
--mode=<mode>(<interface>[,<interface>…])	Interface specific generation mode. The <mode> is the same as above. The <interface> is an interface name. This option could be repeated as many times as needed. It overrides any --default_mode option otherwise in effect. To set the mode for a set of functions to NOP (do nothing) set <mode> to empty. Example: Generate proxy for functions f1 and f2 --mode=P(f1,f2)
--options_file=<file>	A file that contains command line options. The format is the same as the command line with the only addition that it could be split on multiple lines. A line starting with "#" symbol is ignored. This option is necessary if the length of the command line string exceeds system limits. Otherwise it is provided only as a convenience.
