enhancement: post-filtering of functions

Open percontation opened this issue 10 years ago • 1 comments

  1. Ability to mark certain functions as hidden, temporarily collapsing them and all their sub functions out of the trace as if they were filtered.
  2. Ability to focus on a specific instance of a specific function call, filtering out everything before and after that function. Maybe more like zooming in / locking the qira view on to it temporarily. Would be easier to not get lost, and depending on the implementation might help perf.

I'm working on a statically compiled binary right now, but such things should be useful for ordinary large binaries. These things would go great with some kind of dynamic call trace view.

I'm very supportive of this. Filtering is a somewhat hard problem to make fast, and will add complexity to the qiradb, but I think it's worth it. Shard the qiradb!

So I have arrow keys to jump between function start and ends. But yea, when collapsed it would make a nice call trace view.
