Convert binary log to text log

[Pedro Becker]

Hi,

memtrace_x86 can generate traces in either binary or text mode. binary is said to run faster.
Is there a tool to convert the generated *.log file from binary to text?

Trying:
~/Downloads/DynamoRIO-Linux-8.0.0-1$ bin64/drrun -c samples/bin64/libmemtrace_x86_binary.so -- ls
Client memtrace is running
Data file /home/pedro/Downloads/DynamoRIO-Linux-8.0.0-1/samples/bin64/memtrace.ls.289271.0000.log created
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS  bin32  bin64    cmake  docs  drmemory  dynamorio  ext  include    lib32  lib64  License.txt  logs  README  samples  tools
Instrumentation results:
  saw 163616 memory references

and then

~/Downloads/DynamoRIO-Linux-8.0.0-1$ ./samples/bin64/tracedump /home/pedro/Downloads/DynamoRIO-Linux-8.0.0-1/samples/bin64/memtrace.ls.289271.0000.log
Error: file version 1 does not match tool version 800


Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Pedro.

"tracedump" deals with DR's control-flow traces, a different type of trace.  The memtrace_x86 sample does not provide any further tooling and you would be expected to write your own post-processing code.  If you want a full-featured set of address trace post-processing tools, the drcachesim offline tracer is what you want, with a framework for making new analysis tools: https://dynamorio.org/page_drcachesim.html, https://dynamorio.org/sec_drcachesim_offline.html.

I see, I misunderstood the use of tracedump.
Thank you Derek for the thorough explanation!

Best,
Pedro.
