2017-08-01trace: add trace_event_get_state_backends()Stefan Hajnoczi
Code that checks dstate is unaware of SystemTap and LTTng UST dstate, so the following trace event will not fire when solely enabled by SystemTap or LTTng UST: if (trace_event_get_state(TRACE_MY_EVENT)) { str = g_strdup_printf("Expensive string to generate ...", ...); trace_my_event(str); g_free(str); } Add trace_event_get_state_backends() to fetch backend dstate. Those backends that use QEMU dstate fetch it as part of generate_h_backend_dstate(). Update existing trace_event_get_state() callers to use trace_event_get_state_backends() instead.

2017-07-17trace: update old trace events in docsStefan Hajnoczi
Commit c5f1ad429cdf26023cf331075a7d327708e3db6d ("block: Remove bdrv_aio_readv/writev/flush()") removed bdrv_aio_readv()/bdrv_aio_writev() so the example in the tracing documentation is no longer valid.

2017-06-07docs: create config/, devel/ and spin/ subdirectoriesPaolo Bonzini
Developer documentation should be its own manual. As a start, move all developer-oriented files to a separate directory. Also move non-text files to their own directories: docs/config/ for QEMU -readconfig input, and docs/spin/ for formal models to be used with the SPIN model checker. Reviewed-by: Daniel P.
