2014-06-09trace: Multi-backend tracingLluís Vilanova1-0/+1
Adds support to compile QEMU with multiple tracing backends at the same time. For example, you can compile QEMU with: $ ./configure --enable-trace-backends=ftrace,dtrace Where 'ftrace' can be handy for having an in-flight record of events, and 'dtrace' can be later used to extract more information from the system. This patch allows having both available without recompiling QEMU. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2013-03-28trace: [simple] Port to generic event information and new control interfaceLluís Vilanova1-5/+1
The backend is forced to dump event numbers using 64 bits, as TraceEventID is an enum. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

2012-07-19Simpletrace v2: Support multiple arguments, strings.Harsh Prateek Bora1-7/+32
Existing simpletrace backend allows to trace at max 6 args and does not support strings. This newer tracelog format gets rid of fixed size records and therefore allows to trace variable number of args including strings. Sample trace with strings: v9fs_version 0.000 tag=0xffff id=0x64 msize=0x2000 version=9P2000.L v9fs_version_return 6.705 tag=0xffff id=0x64 msize=0x2000 version=9P2000.L Signed-off-by: Harsh Prateek Bora <harsh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2012-07-19monitor: remove unused do_info_traceHarsh Prateek Bora1-1/+0
Going forward with simpletrace v2 variable size trace records, we cannot have a generic function to print trace event info and therefore this interface becomes invalid. As per Stefan Hajnoczi: "This command is only available from the human monitor. It's not very useful because it historically hasn't been able to pretty-print events or show them in the right order (we use a ringbuffer but it prints them out from index 0). Therefore, I don't think we're under any obligation to keep this command around. No one has complained about it's limitations - I think this is a sign that no one has used it. I'd be okay with a patch that removes it."

2011-09-01trace: separate trace event control and query routines from the simple backendLluís1-2/+0
Generalize the 'st_print_trace_events' and 'st_change_trace_event_state' into backend-specific 'trace_print_events' and 'trace_event_set_state' (respectively) in the "trace/control.h" file. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu>
2011-09-01trace: avoid conditional code compilation during option parsingLluís1-8/+0
A default implementation for backend-specific routines is provided in "trace/default.c", which backends can override by setting "trace_default=no" in "configure". Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu>
