* trace: avoid Python 2.5 all() in tracetoolStefan Hajnoczi2014-08-281-1/+2
| | | | | | | | Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 ships Python 2.4.3. The all() function was added in Python 2.5 so we cannot use it. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Benoît Canet <benoit.canet@nodalink.com>
* trace: Multi-backend tracingLluís Vilanova2014-06-091-7/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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: [tracetool] Minimize the amount of per-backend codeLluís Vilanova2014-05-071-40/+32
| | | | | | | Backends now only contain the essential backend-specific code, and most of the work is moved to frontend code. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

* trace: [tracetool] Explicitly identify public backendsLluís Vilanova2013-03-281-1/+15
| | | | | | | | Public backends are those printed by "--list-backends" and thus considered valid by the configure script. Signed-off-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
* tracetool: avoid pkgutil.iter_modules() Python 2.7 functionStefan Hajnoczi2012-05-011-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | The pkgutil.iter_modules() function provides a way to enumerate child modules. Unfortunately it's missing in Python <2.7 so we must implement similar behavior ourselves. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Lluís Vilanova <vilanova@ac.upc.edu>
* tracetool: Rewrite infrastructure as python modulesLluís Vilanova2012-04-181-0/+111
The tracetool script is written in shell and has hit several portability problems due to shell quirks or external tools across host platforms. Additionally the amount of string processing and lack of real data structures makes it tough to implement code generator backends for tracers that are more complex. This patch replaces the shell version of tracetool with a Python version. The new tracetool design is: scripts/tracetool.py - top-level script scripts/tracetool/backend/ - tracer backends live here (simple, ust) scripts/tracetool/format/ - output formats live here (.c, .h) There is common code for trace-events definition parsing so that backends can focus on generating code rather than parsing input. Support for all existing backends (nop, stderr, simple, ust, and dtrace) is added back in follow-up patches.
