Detailed Description

Describe the size difference of two binaries.

Generates a description of the size difference of two binaries based
on the difference of the size of various symbols.

This tool needs "nm" dumps of each binary with full symbol
information. You can obtain the necessary dumps by running the
run_binary_size_analysis.py script upon each binary, with the
"--nm-out" parameter set to the location in which you want to save the
dumps. Example:

  # obtain symbol data from first binary in /tmp/nm1.dump
  cd $CHECKOUT1_SRC
  buildtools/ninja/ninja -C out/Release binary_size_tool
  tools/binary_size/run_binary_size_analysis \
      --library <path_to_library>
      --destdir /tmp/throwaway
      --nm-out /tmp/nm1.dump

  # obtain symbol data from second binary in /tmp/nm2.dump
  cd $CHECKOUT2_SRC
  buildtools/ninja/ninja -C out/Release binary_size_tool
  tools/binary_size/run_binary_size_analysis \
      --library <path_to_library>
      --destdir /tmp/throwaway
      --nm-out /tmp/nm2.dump

  # cleanup useless files
  rm -r /tmp/throwaway

  # run this tool
  explain_binary_size_delta.py --nm1 /tmp/nm1.dump --nm2 /tmp/nm2.dump

CalculateEffectiveSize()

explain_binary_size_delta.CalculateEffectiveSize	(		share_count,
			address,

Given a raw symbol_size and an address, this method returns the
size we should blame on this symbol considering it might share the
machine code/data with other symbols. Using the raw symbol_size for
each symbol would in those cases over estimate the true cost of that
block.

Checks how many symbols share the same memory space. This returns a

used by symbols.

Compare()

explain_binary_size_delta.Compare	(		symbols1,
