This is the twelfth article in the Systrace series, primarily providing a brief introduction to the CPU information area (Kernel) in Systrace. It covers how to view CPU-related information output by the Kernel module, including CPU frequency, scheduling, frequency locking, and core locking.

The purpose of this series is to view the overall operation of the Android system from a different perspective using Systrace, while also providing an alternative angle for learning the Framework. Perhaps you’ve read many articles about the Framework but can never remember the code, or you’re unclear about the execution flow. Maybe from Systrace’s graphical perspective, you can gain a deeper understanding.

This is the eleventh article in the Systrace series, providing a brief introduction to Triple Buffer within Systrace. It covers how to identify jank in Systrace, perform preliminary localization and analysis, and explains the impact of Triple Buffer on performance.

This is the tenth article in the Systrace series, primarily providing a brief introduction to Binder and lock information in Systrace. It covers the basic situation of Binder, the representation of Binder communication in Systrace, how to view Binder information, and analysis of lock contention in SystemServer.

The content of this blog mainly focuses on Android development and optimization-related topics, including the use of performance tools, Android App optimization knowledge, Android Framework explanations, and performance theory. Here is an organized directory for your reference. You can choose the parts you are interested in. This directory includes not only blog content but also some of my answers on Zhihu or historical discussions in The Performance, which has closed. This directory lists my original blog posts. Additionally, I have collected some excellent articles in Must-Knows for Android Performance Optimization, which I update periodically.

Articles come first; tools, Apps, and content projects are collected under Personal Projects. See also the AIW introduction and repository.

This is the seventh article in the Systrace series, primarily introducing the Vsync mechanism in Android. This article examines the display of each frame in the Android system from the perspective of Systrace. Vsync is a critical mechanism in Systrace. Although invisible and intangible when operating a phone, we can see in Systrace how the Android system, guided by Vsync signals, orderly performs rendering and composition for each frame, ensuring stable frame rates.
