From 7e24e92a0615ee6be036743f2a035554d2ceac56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefan Hajnoczi Date: Sat, 22 May 2010 21:11:33 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] trace: Add LTTng Userspace Tracer backend This patch adds LTTng Userspace Tracer (UST) backend support. The UST system requires no kernel support but libust and liburcu must be installed. $ ./configure --trace-backend ust $ make Start the UST daemon: $ ustd & List available tracepoints and enable some: $ ustctl --list-markers $(pgrep qemu) [...] {PID: 5458, channel/marker: ust/paio_submit, state: 0, fmt: "acb %p opaque %p sector_num %lu nb_sectors %lu type %lu" 0x4b32ba} $ ustctl --enable-marker "ust/paio_submit" $(pgrep qemu) Run the trace: $ ustctl --create-trace $(pgrep qemu) $ ustctl --start-trace $(pgrep qemu) [...] $ ustctl --stop-trace $(pgrep qemu) $ ustctl --destroy-trace $(pgrep qemu) Trace results can be viewed using lttv-gui. More information about UST: http://lttng.org/ust Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi trace: Check for LTTng Userspace Tracer headers When using the 'ust' backend, check if the relevant headers are available at host.
