2.4.2 Install Graphics Analyzer on a Linux target
To install Graphics Analyzer on a Linux target, take the following steps.
-
Navigate to the ./target/linux/ directory, and
then to the appropriate directory for your configuration.
Inside each of these directories, there are the following
files:
libinterceptor.soaga-daemon
Note:
- The Linux interceptor supports all Arm®v7 and later
architecture-based CPUs running Linux.
- Make sure that you use the correct libraries for
your target architecture. If you are running on Armv7, you must use either the soft float
libraries or the hard float libraries, depending on the
requirements of your system.
- You can use the appropriate 64-bit build of the daemon when capturing
either 64-bit or 32-bit applications.
- Install the daemon by copying
aga-daemon to anywhere on your target device, and setting the
execute permission bit on the file. You can set the execute permission bit
by running the following command from inside the directory that you copied
aga-daemon into:
chmod +x aga-daemon
- Install the OpenGL ES, EGL, and OpenCL interceptor by copying
libinterceptor.so to anywhere on your
target device.
- Install the Vulkan layer:
- Copy
libinterceptor.so to anywhere on your
target device, and rename it to libVK_layer_aga.so. Note:
Graphics Analyzer
supports capturing Vulkan applications on all Linux targets except for Arm
soft-float.
- <install_directory>/target/linux contains the
VK_LAYER_ARM_AGA.json manifest
file. Copy this file into the same directory as libVK_layer_aga.so.
Note:
If the
application does not query or request them, loading layers and
extensions might be expensive and unnecessary. Manifests allow the
Vulkan loader to identify the names and attributes of layers and
extensions without needing to load them.
