target/hppa/trace-events only contains disabled events, resulting in a
trace-dtrace.dtrace file that says "provider qemu {}". SystemTap's
dtrace(1) tool prints a warning when processing this input file.
This patch avoids the error by emitting an empty file instead of
"provider qemu {}" when there are no enabled trace events.

The dtrace systemtap trace backend for QEMU is very powerful but it is

This commit introduces a way to do simple printf style logging of probe
points using systemtap. In particular it creates another set of tapsets,
one per emulator:
/usr/share/systemtap/tapset/qemu-*-log.stp
These pre-define probe functions which simply call printf() on their
arguments. The printf() format string is taken from the normal
trace-events files, with a little munging to the format specifiers
to cope with systemtap's more restrictive syntax.
With this you can now do
$ stap -e 'probe qemu.system.x86_64.log.qio*{}'

This tool is clever in that it will automatically change the
SYSTEMTAP_TAPSET env variable to point to the directory containing the
right set of probes for the QEMU binary path you give it. This is useful
if you have QEMU installed in /usr but are trying to test and trace a
binary in /home/berrange/usr/qemu-git. In that case you'd do
$ qemu-trace-stap run /home/berrange/usr/qemu-git/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 'qio*'
And it'll make sure /home/berrange/usr/qemu-git/share/systemtap/tapset
is used for the trace session
The 'qemu-trace-stap' script takes a verbose arg so you can understand
what it is running
$ qemu-trace-stap run /home/berrange/usr/qemu-git/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 'qio*'
Using tapset dir '/home/berrange/usr/qemu-git/share/systemtap/tapset' for binary '/home/berrange/usr/qemu-git/bin/qemu-system-x86_64'
Compiling script 'probe qemu.system.x86_64.log.qio* {}'
Running script, <Ctrl>-c to quit
...trace output...
It can enable multiple probes at once
$ qemu-trace-stap run qemu-system-x86_64 'qio*' 'qcrypto*' 'buffer*'
By default it monitors all existing running processes and all future
launched proceses. This can be restricted to a specific PID using the
--pid arg
$ qemu-trace-stap run --pid 2532 qemu-system-x86_64 'qio*'
Finally if you can't remember what probes are valid it can tell you
$ qemu-trace-stap list qemu-system-x86_64
ahci_check_irq
ahci_cmd_done
ahci_dma_prepare_buf

This is a partial revert of commit
7f1b588f20 ("trace: emit name <-> ID
mapping in simpletrace header"), which broke the SystemTap flight
recorder because event mapping records may not be present in the ring
buffer when the trace is analyzed. This means simpletrace.py
--no-header does not know the event ID mapping needed to pretty-print
the trace.
Instead of numbering events dynamically, use a static event ID mapping
as dictated by the event order in the trace-events-all file.
The simpletrace.py script also uses trace-events-all so the next patch
will fix the simpletrace.py --no-header option to take advantage of this
knowledge.

QEMU keeps track of trace event enabled/disabled state and provides
monitor commands to inspect and modify the "dstate". SystemTap and
LTTng UST maintain independent enabled/disabled states for each trace
event, the other backends rely on QEMU dstate.
Introduce a new per-event macro that combines backend-specific dstate
like this:
#define TRACE_MY_EVENT_BACKEND_DSTATE() ( \
QEMU_MY_EVENT_ENABLED() || /* SystemTap */ \
tracepoint_enabled(qemu, my_event) /* LTTng UST */ || \
false)
This will be used to extend trace_event_get_state() in the next patch.
[Daniel Berrange pointed out that QEMU_MY_EVENT_ENABLED() must be true
by default, not false. This way events will fire even if the DTrace
implementation does not implement the SystemTap semaphores feature.
Ubuntu Precise uses lttng-ust-dev 2.0.2 which does not have
tracepoint_enabled(), so we need a compatibility wrapper to keep Travis
builds passing.

The declarations in the generated-tracers.h file are
assuming there's only ever going to be one instance
of this header, as they are not namespaced. When we
have one header per event group, if a single source
file needs to include multiple sets of trace events,
the symbols will all clash.
This change thus introduces a '--group NAME' arg to the
'tracetool' program. This will cause all the symbols in
the generated header files to be given a unique namespace.
If no group is given, the group name 'common' is used,
which is suitable for the current usage where there is
only one global trace-events file used for code generation.

Currently simpletrace assumes that events are given IDs
starting from 0, based on the order in which they appear
in the trace-events file, with no gaps. When the
trace-events file is split up, this assumption becomes
problematic.
To deal with this, extend the simpletrace format so that
it outputs a table of event name <-> ID mappings. That
will allow QEMU to assign arbitrary IDs to events without
breaking simpletrace parsing.
The v3 simple trace format was
FILE HEADER
EVENT TRACE RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD 1
...
EVENT TRACE RECORD N
The v4 simple trace format is now
FILE HEADER
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 0
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 1
...
EVENT MAPPING RECORD M
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 1
...
EVENT TRACE RECORD N
Although this shows all the mapping records being emitted
upfront, this is not required by the format. While the main
simpletrace backend will emit all mappings at startup,
the systemtap simpletrace.stp script will emit the mappings
at first use. eg
FILE HEADER
...
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 0
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 1
EVENT MAPPING RECORD 1
EVENT TRACE RECORD RECORD 2
...
EVENT TRACE RECORD N
This is more space efficient given that most trace records
only include a subset of events.
In modifying the systemtap simpletrace code, a 'begin' probe
was added to emit the trace event header, so you no longer
need to add '--no-header' when running simpletrace.py for
systemtap generated trace files.

The TraceEventID and TraceEventVCPUID enums constants are
no longer actually used for anything critical.
The TRACE_EVENT_COUNT limit is used to determine the size
of the TraceEvents array, and can be removed if we just
NULL terminate the array instead.
The TRACE_VCPU_EVENT_COUNT limit is used as a magic value
for marking non-vCPU events, and also for declaring the
size of the trace dstate mask in the CPUState struct.
The former usage can be replaced by a dedicated constant
TRACE_EVENT_VCPU_NONE, defined as (uint32_t)-1. For the
latter usage, we can simply define a constant for the
number of VCPUs, avoiding the need for the full enum.
The only other usages of the enum values can be replaced
by accesing the id/vcpu_id fields via the named TraceEvent
structs.

the tracing routine ('trace_${event}_exec').

This new tracetool "format" generates a SystemTap .stp file that outputs
simpletrace binary trace data.
In contrast to simpletrace or ftrace, SystemTap does not define its own
trace format. All output from SystemTap is generated by .stp files.
This patch lets us generate a .stp file that outputs in the simpletrace
binary format.
This makes it possible to reuse simpletrace.py to analyze traces
recorded using SystemTap. The simpletrace binary format is especially
useful for long-running traces like flight-recorder mode where string
formatting can be expensive.

SystemTap reserved words sometimes conflict with QEMU variable names.
We escape them to prevent conflicts.
Move escaping into its own function so the next patch can reuse it.

Backends now only contain the essential backend-specific code, and most of the work is moved to frontend code.

* A new format is required to generate definitions for ust tracepoints.
Files ust_events_h.py and ust_events_c.py define common macros, while
new function ust_events_h in events.py does the actual definition of
each tracepoint.
* ust.py generates the new interface for calling userspace tracepoints
with LTTng 2.x, replacing trace_name(args) to tracepoint(name, args).
* As explained in ust_events_c.py, -Wredundant-decls gives a warning
when compiling with gcc 4.7 or older. This is specific to lttng-ust so
for now use a pragma clause to avoid getting a warning.

Uses tracetool to generate a backend-independent tracing event description
(struct TraceEvent).
The values for such structure are generated with the non-public "events"
backend ("events-c" frontend).
The generation of the defines to check if an event is statically enabled is also
moved to the "events" backend ("events-h" frontend).

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.

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.
