1. Modules
Here is a list of all modules:
1.1. Injection API
The Injection API contains methods for programmatic injection of Nsight tools from target applications. This provides an alternative mechanism to the Nsight Host for launching and injecting applications.
Classes
- struct
- Reports information about a specified activity.
- struct
- Reports information about a particular Nsight installation.
Enumerations
- enum NGFX_Injection_ActivityType
- Specifies a particular activity that is available from Nsight Graphics.
- enum NGFX_Injection_Result
- Reports success or failure of an injection operation.
- enum NGFX_Nsight_SKU
- Identifies the SKU of a particular Nsight installation.
Functions
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_EnumerateActivities ( const NGFX_Injection_InstallationInfo* pInstallation, uint32_t* pCount, NGFX_Injection_Activity* pActivities )
- Enumerates the activites that are available for the particular installation of Nsight Graphics.
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_EnumerateInstallations ( uint32_t* pCount, NGFX_Injection_InstallationInfo* pInstallations )
- Enumerates the installations of Nsight that are installed on the current system.
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_ExecuteActivityCommand ( )
- Performs the primary command for the injected activity.
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_InjectToProcess ( const NGFX_Injection_InstallationInfo* pInstallation, const NGFX_Injection_Activity* pActivity )
- Performs an injection into the current process with the specified installation and activity.
Enumerations
- enum NGFX_Injection_ActivityType
-
The activity specifies the type of operations that can be performed when analyzing the application. Only one activity may be selected for a given session.
Values
- NGFX_INJECTION_ACTIVITY_UNKNOWN
- NGFX_INJECTION_ACTIVITY_FRAME_DEBUGGER
- NGFX_INJECTION_ACTIVITY_FRAME_PROFILER
- NGFX_INJECTION_ACTIVITY_GENERATE_CPP_CAPTURE
- NGFX_INJECTION_ACTIVITY_GPU_TRACE
- enum NGFX_Injection_Result
-
All functions within the NGFX Injection API will report a result code that idenfies the success or failure of the operation. Negative values generally indicate a failed operation.
Values
- NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_OK = 0
- Success.
- NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_FAILURE = -1
- Generic failure.
- NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_INVALID_ARGUMENT = -2
- Invalid argument.
- NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_INJECTION_FAILED = -3
- Generic injection failure.
- NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_ALREADY_INJECTED = -4
- Cannot inject because already injected.
- NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_NOT_INJECTED = -5
- Cannot execute activity because not injected.
- NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_DRIVER_STILL_LOADED = -6
- Cannot inject because a graphics driver is already or still loaded.
- enum NGFX_Nsight_SKU
-
The sku is the distribution of Nsight.
Values
- NGFX_NSIGHT_SKU_UNKNOWN
- NGFX_NSIGHT_SKU_PUBLIC
- NGFX_NSIGHT_SKU_PRO
- NGFX_NSIGHT_SKU_INTERNAL
Functions
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_EnumerateActivities ( const NGFX_Injection_InstallationInfo* pInstallation, uint32_t* pCount, NGFX_Injection_Activity* pActivities )
-
Enumerates the activites that are available for the particular installation of Nsight Graphics.
Parameters
- pInstallation
- - A pointer to an installation that was previously identified by NGFX_Injection_EnumerateInstallations.
- pCount
- - Returns the count of activities available for the specified installation
- pActivities
- - Returns the list of activites for the specified installation. This parameter may be null when querying the installation count. If non-null the array of activities will be written here.
Returns
An injection result that reports whether the activities could be queried
Description
This method must be called to identify the activities that may be injected for a particular installation of Nsight Graphics. If installation is valid, a count of activities will be returned and when pActivities is non-null, a list of activities of size *pCount will be populated. It is the responsibilities of the user application to point pActivities to valid memory for writing.
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_EnumerateInstallations ( uint32_t* pCount, NGFX_Injection_InstallationInfo* pInstallations )
-
Enumerates the installations of Nsight that are installed on the current system.
Parameters
- pCount
- - Returns the count of Nsight installations found on the system.
- pInstallations
- - Returns the list of Nsight installation. This parameter may be null when querying the installation count. If non-null the array of installations will be written here.
Returns
An injection result that reports whether the installations could be queried
Description
When Nsight Graphics is installed, this method will discover one or more installations and report them for possible injection. When no installations are present, pCount will be assigned to 0. It is the responsibility of the user application to point pInstallations to valid memory for writing.
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_ExecuteActivityCommand ( )
-
Performs the primary command for the injected activity.
Description
This command is typically a 'capture' command. The prerequisite for this is that NGFX_Injection_InjectToProcess succeeded, i.e., that the application has previously selected a valid installation and activity and successfully injected via NGFX_Injection_InjectToProcess.
This function is currently experimental and may be revised, replaced, or eliminated in a future version.
- NGFX_Injection_Result NGFX_Injection_InjectToProcess ( const NGFX_Injection_InstallationInfo* pInstallation, const NGFX_Injection_Activity* pActivity )
-
Performs an injection into the current process with the specified installation and activity.
Parameters
- pInstallation
- - A pointer to an installation that was previously identified by NGFX_Injection_EnumerateInstallations.
- pActivity
- - A point to the activity to select when injecting that was queried by NGFX_Injection_EnumerateActivities.
Returns
An injection result that reports whether the process could be injected.
Description
To perform an injection into the current process, a valid installation and activity must have been queried. Additionally, the NVIDIA driver must not be activity loaded, otherwise NGFX_INJECTION_RESULT_DRIVER_STILL_LOADED will be returned.
