Eli Staats developed and enhanced firmware tracing capabilities for Pixel kernels in the google/perfetto repository over four months, focusing on both backend and UI improvements. He implemented new ftrace events for FWTP counter and slice tracepoints, enabling end-to-end collection, parsing, and visualization of firmware performance data. Using C++, TypeScript, and protocol buffers, Eli delivered custom tokenization, robust timestamp handling, and updated UI data schemas to ensure accurate and reliable trace rendering. His work improved firmware observability and debugging workflows, providing rapid validation and deeper performance analysis for Pixel firmware, and demonstrated thorough validation, documentation, and test coverage throughout.

Dec 1, 2025

Month: 2025-12 — Delivered FWTP Counter Traces support in Perfetto for google/perfetto, spanning parsing, UI, and timestamp handling. This work enables accurate observability of firmware performance counters, accelerating diagnostics and reducing MTTR for FWTP traces. Implemented custom tokenization for fwtp_perfetto_counter ftrace events with correct embedded timestamps, and updated the Perfetto UI to parse and visualize FWTP counter events using a revised data schema. End-to-end validation confirmed correct timestamps and successful rendering of Pixel firmware counter events in the Perfetto UI. These changes increase data fidelity, drive faster troubleshooting, and bolster confidence in firmware performance telemetry.
