Generating and analyzing a callgraph
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1. Run ./scripts/maint/generate_callgraph.sh . This will generate a
bunch of files in a new ./callgraph directory.
2. Run ./scripts/maint/analyze_callgraph.py callgraph/src/*/* . This
will do a lot of graph operations and then dump out a new
"callgraph.pkl" file, containing data in Python's "pickle" format.
3. Run ./scripts/maint/display_callgraph.py . It will display:
- the number of functions reachable from each function.
- all strongly-connnected components in the Tor callgraph
- the largest bottlenecks in the largest SCC in the Tor callgraph.
Note that currently the callgraph generator can't detect calls that pass
through function pointers.
