NAMEposix_trace_event, posix_trace_eventid_open — trace functions for instrumenting application code (TRACING)

SYNOPSIS#include <sys/types.h> #include <trace.h> void posix_trace_event(trace_event_id_t event_id, const void *restrict data_ptr, size_t data_len); int posix_trace_eventid_open(const char *restrict event_name, trace_event_id_t *restrict event_id);

DESCRIPTIONThe posix_trace_event() function shall record the event_id and the user data pointed to by data_ptr in the trace stream into which the calling process is being traced and in which event_id is not filtered out. If the total size of the user trace event data represented by data_len is not greater than the declared maximum size for user trace event data, then the truncation-status attribute of the trace event recorded is POSIX_TRACE_NOT_TRUNCATED. Otherwise, the user trace event data is truncated to this declared maximum size and the truncation-status attribute of the trace event recorded is POSIX_TRACE_TRUNCATED_RECORD. If there is no trace stream created for the process or if the created trace stream is not running, or if the trace event specified by event_id is filtered out in the trace stream, the posix_trace_event() function shall have no effect. The posix_trace_eventid_open() function shall associate a user trace event name with a trace event type identifier for the calling process. The trace event name is the string pointed to by the argument event_name. It shall have a maximum of {TRACE_EVENT_NAME_MAX} characters (which has the minimum value {_POSIX_TRACE_EVENT_NAME_MAX}). The number of user trace event type identifiers that can be defined for any given process is limited by the maximum value {TRACE_USER_EVENT_MAX}, which has the minimum value {POSIX_TRACE_USER_EVENT_MAX}. If the Trace Inherit option is not supported, the posix_trace_eventid_open() function shall associate the user trace event name pointed to by the event_name argument with a trace event type identifier that is unique for the traced process, and is returned in the variable pointed to by the event_id argument. If the user trace event name has already been mapped for the traced process, then the previously assigned trace event type identifier shall be returned. If the per-process user trace event name limit represented by {TRACE_USER_EVENT_MAX} has been reached, the pre-defined POSIX_TRACE_UNNAMED_USEREVENT (see Table 2-7, Trace Option: User Trace Event) user trace event shall be returned. If the Trace Inherit option is supported, the posix_trace_eventid_open() function shall associate the user trace event name pointed to by the event_name argument with a trace event type identifier that is unique for all the processes being traced in this same trace stream, and is returned in the variable pointed to by the event_id argument. If the user trace event name has already been mapped for the traced processes, then the previously assigned trace event type identifier shall be returned. If the per-process user trace event name limit represented by {TRACE_USER_EVENT_MAX} has been reached, the pre-defined POSIX_TRACE_UNNAMED_USEREVENT ( Table 2-7, Trace Option: User Trace Event) user trace event shall be returned. Note:  The above procedure, together with the fact that multiple processes can only be traced into the same trace stream by inheritance, ensure that all the processes that are traced into a trace stream have the same mapping of trace event names to trace event type identifiers. If there is no trace stream created, the posix_trace_eventid_open() function shall store this information for future trace streams created for this process.

RETURN VALUENo return value is defined for the posix_trace_event() function. Upon successful completion, the posix_trace_eventid_open() function shall return a value of zero. Otherwise, it shall return the corresponding error number. The posix_trace_eventid_open() function stores the trace event type identifier value in the object pointed to by event_id, if successful.

ERRORSThe posix_trace_eventid_open() function shall fail if: ENAMETOOLONG  
The size of the name pointed to by the event_name argument was longer than the implementation-defined value {TRACE_EVENT_NAME_MAX}.
