[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] monitor: remove unused do_info_trace

[Harsh Prateek Bora <harsh@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Going forward with simpletrace v2 variable size trace records, we cannot
have a generic function to print trace event info and therefore this
interface becomes invalid.

As per Stefan Hajnoczi:

"This command is only available from the human monitor.  It's not very
useful because it historically hasn't been able to pretty-print events
or show them in the right order (we use a ringbuffer but it prints
them out from index 0).

Therefore, I don't think we're under any obligation to keep this
command around.  No one has complained about it's limitations - I
think this is a sign that no one has used it.  I'd be okay with a
patch that removes it."
