Network Tracing

User can enable network core stack and socket API calls tracing.

The CONFIG_TRACING_NET_CORE option controls the core network stack tracing. This option is enabled by default if tracing and networking are enabled. The system will start to collect the receiving and sending call verdicts i.e., whether the network packet was successfully sent or received. It will also collect packet sending or receiving timings i.e., how long it took to deliver the network packet, and the network interface, priority and traffic class used.

The CONFIG_TRACING_NET_SOCKETS option can be used to track BSD socket call usage in the system. It is enabled if tracing and BSD socket API support are enabled. The system will start to collect what BSD socket API calls are made and what parameters the API calls are using and returning.

See the tracing documentation for how to use the tracing service.
