Trace Analysis Patterns (Part 212)

Saturday, September 11th, 2021

Even if traces and logs are perfectly synchronized (Unsynchronized Traces) we me still get Unsynchronized Messages. If respective message times are the same (can depend on time resolution) we don’t know which one was first. This is visible if we do Trace Mask using different order:

If both messages belong to the same Thread of Activity we may be able to reorder them correctly based on additional message semantics, such as module hierarchy (for example, OS runtime library and application code that are traced separately).
