Generates file "trace/generated-helpers.h" with TCG helper declarations to trace
events in guest code at execution time ('trace_${event}_exec_proxy').

Lluís Vilanova 5b808275f3 trace: Multi-backend tracing
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.

Lluís Vilanova 1dad2ce973 trace: [tracetool] Minimize the amount of per-backend code
Backends now only contain the essential backend-specific code, and most of the work is moved to frontend code.

Eiichi Tsukata 781e9545db trace: Add ftrace tracing backend
This patch adds a ftrace tracing backend which sends trace event to
ftrace marker file. You can effectively compare qemu trace data and
kernel(especially, kvm.ko when using KVM) trace data.
The ftrace backend is restricted to Linux only.

To try out the ftrace backend:

 $ ./configure --trace-backend=ftrace
 $ make

if you use KVM, enable kvm events in ftrace:

 # sudo echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kvm/enable

After running qemu by root user, you can get the trace:

 # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace

Stefan Hajnoczi a7373b1f61 trace: rebuild generated-events.o when configuration changes
Make sure to rebuild generated-events.o when ./configure options change.
This prevents linker errors when a stale generated-events.o gets linked
with code compiled against fresh headers.  For example, try building
with ./configure --enable-trace-backend=stderr followed by ./configure
--enable-trace-backend=dtrace.

Lluís Vilanova 45be2f5d0d trace: Provide a generic tracing event descriptor
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).
