+/* log-for-trace.h: logging basics required by the trace.h generated
+ * by the log trace backend.
+ *
+ * This should not be included directly by any .c file: if you
+ * need to use the logging functions include "qemu/log.h".
+ *
+ * The purpose of splitting these parts out into their own header
+ * is to catch the easy mistake where a .c file includes trace.h
+ * but forgets to include qemu/log.h. Without this split, that
+ * would result in the .c file compiling fine when the default
+ * trace backend is in use but failing to compile with any other
+ * backend.
+ *
+ * This code is licensed under the GNU General Public License,
+ * version 2 or (at your option) any later version.
