From 320fba2a1f384e17db150d74540a2cf005eb47b5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Fabien Chouteau Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2011 10:24:41 +0100 Subject: New trace-event backend: stderr This backend sends trace events to standard error output during the emulation. Also add a "--list-backends" option to tracetool, so configure script can display the list of available backends.
