Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v8 09/14] trace-state: always compile support for controlling	and querying trace event states
Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 18:53:06 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110831165306.4389.90791.stgit@ginnungagap.bsc.es> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110831165206.4389.17250.stgit@ginnungagap.bsc.es>

The current interface is generic for this small set of operations, and thus
other backends can easily modify the "trace/control.c" file to add their own
implementation.

+== Generic interface and monitor commands ==
+
+You can programmatically query and control the dynamic state of trace events
+through a backend-agnostic interface:
+
+* trace_print_events
+
+* trace_event_set_state
+  Enables or disables trace events at runtime inside QEMU.
+  The function returns "true" if the state of the event has been successfully
+  changed, or "false" otherwise:
+
+    #include "trace/control.h"
+    
+    trace_event_set_state("virtio_irq", true); /* enable */
+    [...]
+    trace_event_set_state("virtio_irq", false); /* disable */
+
+Note that some of the backends do not provide an implementation for this
+interface, in which case QEMU will just print a warning.
+
+This functionality is also provided through monitor commands:
+
+* info trace-events
+  View available trace events and their state.  State 1 means enabled, state 0
+  means disabled.
+
+* trace-event NAME on|off
