Software Improvements to Assist Development of Tegra System Software

Haozhe Jiang, Matthew Kaminski and Matthew McMillan

Advisor: Mark Claypool

Major Qualifying Project
Computer Science Department, WPI
Term C 2020

Sponsored by: NVidia

Abstract

NVIDIA produces a system on a chip (SoC) series called Tegra for mobile devices. The NVIDIA Tegra Systems Software Team is responsible for developing and maintaining software on the Tegra chips including code tracing, code scanning, and latency measurement. Our project assists the developers on the NVIDIA Tegra Software System Team by making tools that make their work more efficient. This includes developing a parser tool to parse the output of Tegra instruction tracing, improving and simplifying the code of a commonly used code analysis script, measuring the latencies in CPU optimization code, and evaluating the performance of atomic functions. We completed and submitted code to NVIDIA repositories for each project.
