Paths report
The paths report reports the latency between different stage buffers. There can be translation difficulties when converting buffer-to-buffer latencies into stage latencies from the stage report. In the paths report, those numbers are reported directly.

| Column Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
section id |
Unique id associated with each section |
buffer chain |
Input buffer and output buffer pair. |
latency |
Delay between when the src buffer first receives the data and when the destination buffer receives the data. |
nodes (kNames) |
The kNames (the name at the lower stack) for each of the templates in the stage (including buffers). |
nodes (NodeName) |
The node names (the name at the lower stack) for each of the templates in the stage (including buffers) |
src stage depth |
Number of stages between the source buffer and the beginning of the section. |
dst stage depth |
Number of stages between the destination buffer and the beginning of the section. |
Interpret the data
This report is primarily used for tracing paths between two stage buffers whose latency is reported in the stage latency report. Use this report to identify critical stages in the graph.
