2013-03-28trace: [simple] Port to generic event information and new control interfaceLluís Vilanova
The backend is forced to dump event numbers using 64 bits, as TraceEventID is an enum. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
2013-03-28trace: Provide a generic tracing event descriptorLluís Vilanova
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).

2013-03-28trace: [tracetool] Explicitly identify public backendsLluís Vilanova
Public backends are those printed by "--list-backends" and thus considered valid by the configure script. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

2012-11-16Avoid all systemtap reserved wordsDaniel P. Berrange
Over time various systemtap reserved words have been blacklisted in the trace backend generator. The list is not complete though, so there is continued risk of problems in the future. Preempt such problems by specifying the full list of systemtap keywords listed in its parser as identified here: http://sourceware.org/ml/systemtap/2012-q4/msg00157.html Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

gcc complains when a 32 bit pointer is casted to a 64 bit integer. Cc: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Weil <sw@weilnetz.de> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2012-07-19Simpletrace v2: Support multiple arguments, strings.Harsh Prateek Bora
Existing simpletrace backend allows to trace at max 6 args and does not support strings. This newer tracelog format gets rid of fixed size records and therefore allows to trace variable number of args including strings. Sample trace with strings: v9fs_version 0.000 tag=0xffff id=0x64 msize=0x2000 version=9P2000.L v9fs_version_return 6.705 tag=0xffff id=0x64 msize=0x2000 version=9P2000.L Signed-off-by: Harsh Prateek Bora <harsh@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2012-05-01tracetool: avoid pkgutil.iter_modules() Python 2.7 functionStefan Hajnoczi
The pkgutil.iter_modules() function provides a way to enumerate child modules. Unfortunately it's missing in Python <2.7 so we must implement similar behavior ourselves. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu>
2012-04-18tracetool: handle DTrace keywords 'in', 'next', 'self'Stefan Hajnoczi
Language keywords cannot be used as argument names. The DTrace backend appends an underscore to the argument name in order to make the argument name legal. This patch adds 'in', 'next', and 'self' keywords to dtrace.py. Also drop the unnecessary argument name lstrip() call. The Arguments.build() method already ensures there is no space around argument names. Furthermore it is misleading to do the lstrip() *after* checking against keywords because the keyword check would not match if spaces were in the name.

2012-04-18tracetool: Rewrite infrastructure as python modulesLluís Vilanova
The tracetool script is written in shell and has hit several portability problems due to shell quirks or external tools across host platforms. Additionally the amount of string processing and lack of real data structures makes it tough to implement code generator backends for tracers that are more complex. This patch replaces the shell version of tracetool with a Python version. The new tracetool design is: scripts/tracetool.py - top-level script scripts/tracetool/backend/ - tracer backends live here (simple, ust) scripts/tracetool/format/ - output formats live here (.c, .h) There is common code for trace-events definition parsing so that backends can focus on generating code rather than parsing input. Support for all existing backends (nop, stderr, simple, ust, and dtrace) is added back in follow-up patches.
