7609ffb919 trace: fix tcg tracing build breakage
Commit 0ab8ed18a6 ("trace: switch to
modular code generation for sub-directories") forgot to convert "tcg"
trace events to the modular code generation approach where each
sub-directory has its own trace-events file.

This patch fixes compilation for "tcg" trace events.  Currently they are
only used in the root ./trace-events file.

"tcg" trace events can only be used in the root ./trace-events file for
the time being.

0ab8ed18a6 trace: switch to modular code generation for sub-directories
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.

80dd5c4918 trace: introduce a formal group name for trace events
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.

347701879c trace: get rid of generated-events.h/generated-events.c
Currently the generated-events.[ch] files contain the
event dstates, constants and TraceEvent structs, while the
generated-tracers.[ch] files contain the actual trace
probe logic. With the removal of usage of the event enums
from the API there is no longer any compelling reason for
the separation between these files. The generated-events.h
content is only ever needed from the generated-tracers.[ch]
files.

The enums/constants/structs from generated-events.[ch] are
thus moved into the generated-tracers.[ch], so that there
is one less file to be generated.

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.

465830fbd9 trace: [tcg] Generate TCG tracing routines
Generate header "trace/generated-tcg-tracers.h" with the necessary routines for
tracing events in guest code:

* trace_${event}_tcg

  Convenience wrapper that calls the translation-time tracer
  'trace_${event}_trans', and calls 'gen_helper_trace_${event}_exec to
  generate the TCG code to later trace the event at execution time.

f4654226d4 trace: [tcg] Define TCG tracing helper routine wrappers
Generates header "trace/generated-helpers-wrappers.h" with definitions for TCG
helper wrappers.

These wrappers ('gen_helper_trace_${event}_exec_wrapper') transform mixed native
and TCG argument types to TCG types and call the actual TCG helpers
('gen_helper_trace_${event}_exec_proxy').

341ea69185 trace: [tcg] Define TCG tracing helper routines
Generates file "trace/generated-helpers.c" with TCG helper definitions to trace
events in guest code at execution time.

The helpers ('helper_trace_${event}_exec_proxy') cast the TCG-compatible native
argument types to their original types (as defined in "trace-events") and call
the tracing routine ('trace_${event}_exec').

3f8b112d6b trace: add tracetool simpletrace_stap format
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.

a76ccf3c1c trace: extract stap_escape() function for reuse
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.

5b808275f3 trace: Multi-backend tracing
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.
