Macro Definition Documentation

#define RTE_TRACE_POINT_DEFINE

(

tp

)

rte_trace_point_t __attribute__((section("__rte_trace_point"))) __##tp

Macro to define the tracepoint.

Definition at line 38 of file rte_trace_point.h.

#define RTE_TRACE_POINT_ARGS

Macro to define the tracepoint arguments in RTE_TRACE_POINT macro.

RTE_TRACE_POINT, RTE_TRACE_POINT_FP

Definition at line 46 of file rte_trace_point.h.

#define RTE_TRACE_POINT	(		tp,
			args,
			...
	)		__RTE_TRACE_POINT(generic, tp, args, __VA_ARGS__)

Create a tracepoint.

A tracepoint is defined by specifying:

• its input arguments: they are the C function style parameters to define the arguments of tracepoint function. These input arguments are embedded using the RTE_TRACE_POINT_ARGS macro.
• its output event fields: they are the sources of event fields that form the payload of any event that the execution of the tracepoint macro emits for this particular tracepoint. The application uses rte_trace_point_emit_* macros to emit the output event fields.

Parameters

tp	Tracepoint object. Before using the tracepoint, an application needs to define the tracepoint using RTE_TRACE_POINT_DEFINE macro.
args	C function style input arguments to define the arguments to tracepoint function.
...	Define the payload of trace function. The payload will be formed using rte_trace_point_emit_* macros. Use ";" delimiter between two payloads.

#define RTE_TRACE_POINT_FP	(		tp,
			args,
			...
	)		__RTE_TRACE_POINT(fp, tp, args, __VA_ARGS__)

Create a tracepoint for fast path.

Similar to RTE_TRACE_POINT, except that it is removed at compilation time unless the RTE_ENABLE_TRACE_FP configuration parameter is set.

Parameters

tp	Tracepoint object. Before using the tracepoint, an application needs to define the tracepoint using RTE_TRACE_POINT_DEFINE macro.
args	C function style input arguments to define the arguments to tracepoint. function.
...	Define the payload of trace function. The payload will be formed using rte_trace_point_emit_* macros, Use ";" delimiter between two payloads.

#define RTE_TRACE_POINT_REGISTER	(		trace,
			name
	)

Register a tracepoint.

Parameters

trace	The tracepoint object created using RTE_TRACE_POINT_DEFINE.
name	The name of the tracepoint object.

Returns

• 0: Successfully registered the tracepoint.
• <0: Failure to register the tracepoint.
