2017-03-28trace: fix tcg tracing build breakageStefan Hajnoczi
Commit 0ab8ed18a6fe98bfc82705b0f041fbf2a8ca5b60 ("trace: switch to modular code generation for sub-directories") forgot to convert "tcg" trace events to the modular code generation approach where each sub-directory has its own trace-events file. This patch fixes compilation for "tcg" trace events. Currently they are only used in the root ./trace-events file. "tcg" trace events can only be used in the root ./trace-events file for the time being. Reported-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Tested-by: Emilio G.

2017-01-31trace: switch to modular code generation for sub-directoriesDaniel P. Berrange
Introduce rules in the top level Makefile that are able to generate trace.[ch] files in every subdirectory which has a trace-events file. The top level directory is handled specially, so instead of creating trace.h, it creates trace-root.h. This allows sub-directories to include the top level trace-root.h file, without ambiguity wrt to the trace.g file in the current sub-dir.

2016-10-12trace: introduce a formal group name for trace eventsDaniel P. Berrange
The declarations in the generated-tracers.h file are assuming there's only ever going to be one instance of this header, as they are not namespaced. When we have one header per event group, if a single source file needs to include multiple sets of trace events, the symbols will all clash. This change thus introduces a '--group NAME' arg to the 'tracetool' program. This will cause all the symbols in the generated header files to be given a unique namespace. If no group is given, the group name 'common' is used, which is suitable for the current usage where there is only one global trace-events file used for code generation.

2016-10-12trace: get rid of generated-events.h/generated-events.cDaniel P. Berrange
Currently the generated-events.[ch] files contain the event dstates, constants and TraceEvent structs, while the generated-tracers.[ch] files contain the actual trace probe logic. With the removal of usage of the event enums from the API there is no longer any compelling reason for the separation between these files. The generated-events.h content is only ever needed from the generated-tracers.[ch] files. The enums/constants/structs from generated-events.[ch] are thus moved into the generated-tracers.[ch], so that there is one less file to be generated.

2016-10-12trace: provide mechanism for registering trace eventsDaniel P. Berrange
Remove the notion of there being a single global array of trace events, by introducing a method for registering groups of events. The module_call_init() needs to be invoked at the start of any program that wants to make use of the trace support. Currently this covers system emulators qemu-nbd, qemu-img and qemu-io. [Squashed the following fix from Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>: linux-user/bsd-user: initialize trace events subsystem The bsd-user/linux-user programs make use of the CPU emulation code and this now requires that the trace events subsystem is enabled, otherwise it'll crash trying to allocate an empty trace events bitmap for the CPU object. --Stefan] Reviewed-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

2016-10-12trace: emit name <-> ID mapping in simpletrace headerDaniel P. Berrange
Currently simpletrace assumes that events are given IDs starting from 0, based on the order in which they appear in the trace-events file, with no gaps. When the trace-events file is split up, this assumption becomes problematic. To deal with this, extend the simpletrace format so that it outputs a table of event name <-> ID mappings. That will allow QEMU to assign arbitrary IDs to events without breaking simpletrace parsing. The v3 simple trace format was FILE HEADER EVENT TRACE RECORD 0 EVENT TRACE RECORD 1 ... EVENT TRACE RECORD N The v4 simple trace format is now FILE HEADER EVENT MAPPING RECORD 0 EVENT MAPPING RECORD 1 ... EVENT MAPPING RECORD M EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 0 EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 1 ... EVENT TRACE RECORD N Although this shows all the mapping records being emitted upfront, this is not required by the format. While the main simpletrace backend will emit all mappings at startup, the systemtap simpletrace.stp script will emit the mappings at first use. eg FILE HEADER ... EVENT MAPPING RECORD 0 EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 0 EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 1 EVENT MAPPING RECORD 1 EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 2 ... EVENT TRACE RECORD N This is more space efficient given that most trace records only include a subset of events. In modifying the systemtap simpletrace code, a 'begin' probe was added to emit the trace event header, so you no longer need to add '--no-header' when running simpletrace.py for systemtap generated trace files.

2016-10-12trace: remove the TraceEventID and TraceEventVCPUID enumsDaniel P. Berrange
The TraceEventID and TraceEventVCPUID enums constants are no longer actually used for anything critical. The TRACE_EVENT_COUNT limit is used to determine the size of the TraceEvents array, and can be removed if we just NULL terminate the array instead. The TRACE_VCPU_EVENT_COUNT limit is used as a magic value for marking non-vCPU events, and also for declaring the size of the trace dstate mask in the CPUState struct. The former usage can be replaced by a dedicated constant TRACE_EVENT_VCPU_NONE, defined as (uint32_t)-1. For the latter usage, we can simply define a constant for the number of VCPUs, avoiding the need for the full enum. The only other usages of the enum values can be replaced by accesing the id/vcpu_id fields via the named TraceEvent structs.
