fe4db84d49 trace: provide mechanism for registering trace events
Remove the notion of there being a single global array
of trace events, by introducing a method for registering
groups of events.

The module_call_init() needs to be invoked at the start
of any program that wants to make use of the trace
support. Currently this covers system emulators qemu-nbd,
qemu-img and qemu-io.

[Squashed the following fix from Daniel P. Berrange
<berrange@redhat.com>:

linux-user/bsd-user: initialize trace events subsystem

The bsd-user/linux-user programs make use of the CPU emulation
code and this now requires that the trace events subsystem
is enabled, otherwise it'll crash trying to allocate an empty
trace events bitmap for the CPU object.

7f1b588f20 trace: emit name <-> ID mapping in simpletrace header
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.

ef4c9fc854 trace: remove the TraceEventID and TraceEventVCPUID enums
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.

9397740244 trace: remove global 'uint16 dstate[]' array
Instead of having a global dstate array, declare a single
'uint16 TRACE_${EVENT_NAME}_DSTATE' variable for each
trace event. Record a pointer to this variable in the
TraceEvent struct too.

By turning trace_event_get_state_dynamic_by_id into a
macro, this still hits the fast path, and cache affinity
is ensured by declaring all the uint16 vars adjacent to
each other.

This new tracetool "format" generates a SystemTap .stp file that outputs

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

9530570fa5 Modified the tracetool framework for LTTng 2.x
* 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.

736ec1677f trace: fix simple trace "disable" keyword
The trace-events "disable" keyword turns an event into a nop at
compile-time.  This is important for high-frequency events that can
impact performance.

The "disable" keyword is currently broken in the simple trace backend.
This patch fixes the problem as follows:

Trace events are identified by their TraceEventID number.  When events
are disabled there are two options for assigning TraceEventID numbers:
1. Skip disabled events and don't assign them a number.
2. Assign numbers for all events regardless of the disabled keyword.

The simple trace backend and its binary file format uses approach #1.

The tracetool infrastructure has been using approach #2 for a while.

The result is that the numbers used in simple trace files do not
correspond with TraceEventIDs.  In trace/simple.c we assumed that they
are identical and therefore emitted bogus numbers.

This patch fixes the bug by using TraceEventID for trace_event_id()
while sticking to approach #1 for simple trace file numbers.  This
preserves simple trace file format compatibility.

781e9545db trace: Add ftrace tracing backend
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

256a721d46 tracetool: handle DTrace keywords 'in', 'next', 'self'
Language keywords cannot be used as argument names.  The DTrace backend
appends an underscore to the argument name in order to make the argument
name legal.

This patch adds 'in', 'next', and 'self' keywords to dtrace.py.

Also drop the unnecessary argument name lstrip() call.  The
Arguments.build() method already ensures there is no space around
argument names.  Furthermore it is misleading to do the lstrip() *after*
checking against keywords because the keyword check would not match if
spaces were in the name.

650ab98d1d tracetool: Rewrite infrastructure as python modules
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.

bb55b712e8 Fix conversion from lower to upper case with Turkish locale
Some locale settings let make fail or create wrong results
because tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]' which is used to convert
from lower to upper case depends on the locale.

With locale tr_TR.UTF-8, lower case 'i' is not converted to 'I'.
This results in wrong entries in config-host.h like these ones:

  #define CONFIG_QEMU_PREFiX "/usr/local"
  #define CONFIG_QEMU_BiNDiR "/usr/local/bin"

This problem was reported by Emre Ersin.

The same problem occurs when configure creates the target specific
files config-target.mak. They get wrong declarations:

TARGET_CRiS=y
TARGET_i386=y
TARGET_MiCROBLAZE=y
TARGET_MiPS64=y
TARGET_MiPS=y
TARGET_UNiCORE32=y

It is sufficient to restrict the conversion to the characters a-z.

Using this explicit range avoids the dependency on the locale
settings and is also shorter.

v2:
POSIX says that 'tr a-z' is unspecified outside of the POSIX
locale, so we must set LC_ALL=C to make sure that we are using
POSIX (hint from Eric Blake, thanks).

bcec43324d tracetool: Omit useless QEMU_*_ENABLED() check
SystemTap provides a "semaphore" that can optionally be tested before
executing a trace event.  The purpose of this mechanism is to skip
expensive tracing code when the trace event is disabled.

For example, some applications may have trace events that format or
convert strings for trace events.  This expensive processing should only
be done in the case where the trace event is enabled.

Since QEMU's generated trace events never have such special-purpose
code, there is no reason to add the semaphore check.

This lets the user conditionally compile code with a relatively high execution

default, in order to avoid such costs on regular builds.

913540a376 trace: allow PRI*64 at beginning and ending of format string
The tracetool parser only picks up PRI*64 and other format string macros
when enclosed between double quoted strings.  Lift this restriction by
extracting everything after the closing ')' as the format string:

                                  ^^        ^^

One trick here: it turns out that backslashes in the format string like
"\n" were being interpreted by echo(1).  Fix this by using the POSIX
printf(1) command instead.  Although it normally does not make sense to
include backslashes in trace event format strings, an injected newline
causes tracetool to emit a broken header file and I want to eliminate
cases where broken output is emitted, even if the input was bad.
