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. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
