* trace: switch to modular code generation for sub-directoriesDaniel P. Berrange2017-01-311-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce rules in the top level Makefile that are able to generate trace.[ch] files in every subdirectory which has a trace-events file. The top level directory is handled specially, so instead of creating trace.h, it creates trace-root.h. This allows sub-directories to include the top level trace-root.h file, without ambiguity wrt to the trace.g file in the current sub-dir.

* trace: don't abort qemu if ftrace can't be initializedDaniel P. Berrange2016-10-121-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If the ftrace backend is compiled into QEMU, any attempt to start QEMU while non-root will fail due to the inability to open /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_on. Add a fallback into the code so that it connects up the trace_marker_fd variable to /dev/null when getting EACCES on the 'trace_on' file. This allows QEMU to run, with ftrace turned into a no-op.

* all: Clean up includesPeter Maydell2016-02-041-4/+1Star

* trace: Multi-backend tracingLluís Vilanova2014-06-091-24/+1Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Adds support to compile QEMU with multiple tracing backends at the same time. For example, you can compile QEMU with: $ ./configure --enable-trace-backends=ftrace,dtrace Where 'ftrace' can be handy for having an in-flight record of events, and 'dtrace' can be later used to extract more information from the system. This patch allows having both available without recompiling QEMU. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
* trace: Add ftrace tracing backendEiichi Tsukata2013-05-031-0/+102
This patch adds a ftrace tracing backend which sends trace event to ftrace marker file. You can effectively compare qemu trace data and kernel(especially, kvm.ko when using KVM) trace data. The ftrace backend is restricted to Linux only. To try out the ftrace backend: $ ./configure --trace-backend=ftrace $ make if you use KVM, enable kvm events in ftrace: # sudo echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kvm/enable After running qemu by root user, you can get the trace: # cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace Signed-off-by: Eiichi Tsukata <eiichi.tsukata.xh@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
