2014-08-12trace: [tcg] Add 'tcg' event propertyLluís Vilanova1-0/+5
Transforms event: tcg name(...) "...", "..." into two internal events: tcg-trans name_trans(...) "..." tcg-exec name_exec(...) "..." Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2014-08-12trace: add tracetool simpletrace_stap formatStefan Hajnoczi1-0/+71
This new tracetool "format" generates a SystemTap .stp file that outputs simpletrace binary trace data. In contrast to simpletrace or ftrace, SystemTap does not define its own trace format. All output from SystemTap is generated by .stp files. This patch lets us generate a .stp file that outputs in the simpletrace binary format. This makes it possible to reuse simpletrace.py to analyze traces recorded using SystemTap. The simpletrace binary format is especially useful for long-running traces like flight-recorder mode where string formatting can be expensive. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2014-08-12trace: extract stap_escape() function for reuseStefan Hajnoczi1-3/+8
SystemTap reserved words sometimes conflict with QEMU variable names. We escape them to prevent conflicts. Move escaping into its own function so the next patch can reuse it. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2014-05-07trace: [tracetool] Minimize the amount of per-backend codeLluís Vilanova9-65/+152
Backends now only contain the essential backend-specific code, and most of the work is moved to frontend code. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

Makes it easier to ensure proper naming across the different frontends and backends. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2014-02-19Modified the tracetool framework for LTTng 2.xMohamad Gebai2-0/+87
* A new format is required to generate definitions for ust tracepoints. Files ust_events_h.py and ust_events_c.py define common macros, while new function ust_events_h in events.py does the actual definition of each tracepoint. * ust.py generates the new interface for calling userspace tracepoints with LTTng 2.x, replacing trace_name(args) to tracepoint(name, args). * As explained in ust_events_c.py, -Wredundant-decls gives a warning when compiling with gcc 4.7 or older. This is specific to lttng-ust so for now use a pragma clause to avoid getting a warning.

2013-03-28trace: Provide a generic tracing event descriptorLluís Vilanova3-8/+90
Uses tracetool to generate a backend-independent tracing event description (struct TraceEvent). The values for such structure are generated with the non-public "events" backend ("events-c" frontend). The generation of the defines to check if an event is statically enabled is also moved to the "events" backend ("events-h" frontend).

2012-05-01tracetool: avoid pkgutil.iter_modules() Python 2.7 functionStefan Hajnoczi1-2/+6
The pkgutil.iter_modules() function provides a way to enumerate child modules. Unfortunately it's missing in Python <2.7 so we must implement similar behavior ourselves. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu>

2012-04-18tracetool: Rewrite infrastructure as python modulesLluís Vilanova1-0/+99
The tracetool script is written in shell and has hit several portability problems due to shell quirks or external tools across host platforms. Additionally the amount of string processing and lack of real data structures makes it tough to implement code generator backends for tracers that are more complex. This patch replaces the shell version of tracetool with a Python version. The new tracetool design is: scripts/tracetool.py - top-level script scripts/tracetool/backend/ - tracer backends live here (simple, ust) scripts/tracetool/format/ - output formats live here (.c, .h) There is common code for trace-events definition parsing so that backends can focus on generating code rather than parsing input. Support for all existing backends (nop, stderr, simple, ust, and dtrace) is added back in follow-up patches.
