2016-09-05trace: add syslog tracing backendPaul Durrant
This patch adds a tracing backend which sends output using syslog(). The syslog backend is limited to POSIX compliant systems. openlog() is called with facility set to LOG_DAEMON, with the LOG_PID option. Trace events are logged at level LOG_INFO.

2016-07-18trace: Conditionally trace events based on their per-vCPU stateLluís Vilanova
Events with the 'vcpu' property are conditionally emitted according to their per-vCPU state. Other events are emitted normally based on their global tracing state. Note that the per-vCPU condition check applies to all tracing backends.

2014-08-12trace: add tracetool simpletrace_stap formatStefan Hajnoczi
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>

2014-01-27trace: fix simple trace "disable" keywordStefan Hajnoczi
The trace-events "disable" keyword turns an event into a nop at compile-time. This is important for high-frequency events that can impact performance. The "disable" keyword is currently broken in the simple trace backend. This patch fixes the problem as follows: Trace events are identified by their TraceEventID number. When events are disabled there are two options for assigning TraceEventID numbers: 1. Skip disabled events and don't assign them a number. 2. Assign numbers for all events regardless of the disabled keyword. The simple trace backend and its binary file format uses approach #1. The tracetool infrastructure has been using approach #2 for a while. The result is that the numbers used in simple trace files do not correspond with TraceEventIDs. In trace/simple.c we assumed that they are identical and therefore emitted bogus numbers. This patch fixes the bug by using TraceEventID for trace_event_id() while sticking to approach #1 for simple trace file numbers. This preserves simple trace file format compatibility.
