Subject: Re: [patch] introduce TRACE_EVENT_ABI (was Re: TRACE_EVENT_ABI ?)
Date: Wed, 23 Sep 2009 08:43:40 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090923124340.GA6093@infradead.org> (raw)


I'm not sure we can support any as an ABI yet.  The text format seems to
volatile in general - not just the output of the individual trace events
but also the common file format, and for the binary format we need to
figure a good way to tag the output yet.   Also when we define one as
one ABI we should make very clear what that means, e.g. does it have to stay
exactly as is?  Or can we add new fields but not remove old one?
