Detailed Description

RTE Trace API

This file provides the trace API to RTE applications.

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Definition in file rte_trace.h.

Enumeration Type Documentation

rte_trace_mode

enum rte_trace_mode

Enumerate trace mode operation.

Enumerator
RTE_TRACE_MODE_OVERWRITE	In this mode, when no space is left in the trace buffer, the subsequent events overwrite the old events.
RTE_TRACE_MODE_DISCARD	In this mode, when no space is left in the trace buffer, the subsequent events shall not be recorded.

Definition at line 61 of file rte_trace.h.

Function Documentation

rte_trace_is_enabled()

__rte_experimental bool rte_trace_is_enabled

(

void

)

Test if trace is enabled.

Returns

true if trace is enabled, false otherwise.

rte_trace_feature_is_enabled()

static __rte_experimental __rte_always_inline bool rte_trace_feature_is_enabled ( void  )

static

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change, or be removed, without prior notice

Test if trace feature is enabled at compile time.

Returns

true if trace feature is enabled, false otherwise.

Definition at line 49 of file rte_trace.h.

rte_trace_mode_set()

__rte_experimental void rte_trace_mode_set

(

enum rte_trace_mode

mode

)

Set the trace mode.

Parameters

mode	Trace mode.

rte_trace_mode_get()

__rte_experimental enum rte_trace_mode rte_trace_mode_get

(

void

)

Get the trace mode.

Returns

The current trace mode.

rte_trace_pattern()

__rte_experimental int rte_trace_pattern	(	const char *	pattern,
		bool	enable
	)

Enable/Disable a set of tracepoints based on globbing pattern.

Parameters

pattern	The globbing pattern identifying the tracepoint.
enable	true to enable tracepoint, false to disable the tracepoint, upon match.

Returns

• 0: Success and no pattern match.
• 1: Success and found pattern match.
• (-ERANGE): Tracepoint object is not registered.

rte_trace_regexp()

__rte_experimental int rte_trace_regexp	(	const char *	regex,
		bool	enable
	)

Enable/Disable a set of tracepoints based on regular expression.

Parameters

regex	A regular expression identifying the tracepoint.
enable	true to enable tracepoint, false to disable the tracepoint, upon match.

Returns

• 0: Success and no pattern match.
• 1: Success and found pattern match.
• (-ERANGE): Tracepoint object is not registered.
• (-EINVAL): Invalid regular expression rule.

rte_trace_save()

__rte_experimental int rte_trace_save

(

void

)

Save the trace buffer to the trace directory.

By default, trace directory will be created at $HOME directory and this can be overridden by –trace-dir EAL parameter.

Returns

• 0: Success.
• <0 : Failure.

rte_trace_metadata_dump()

__rte_experimental int rte_trace_metadata_dump

(

FILE *

f

)

Dump the trace metadata to a file.

Parameters

f	A pointer to a file for output

Returns

• 0: Success.
• <0 : Failure.

rte_trace_dump()

__rte_experimental void rte_trace_dump

(

FILE *

f

)

Dump the trace subsystem status to a file.

Parameters

f	A pointer to a file for output
