Subject: [ANNOUNCE] libtracefs 1.3
Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2022 18:39:39 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220223183939.3650aabd@rorschach.local.home> (raw)
Long over due, but libtracefs 1.3 has finally been released!
With 90 new interfaces, it makes accessing tracefs much simpler.
Official release notes:
libtracefs 1.3
Critical:
- Optimized string list handling. It was always stated that some string
lists must be freed with tracefs_list_free(), and now it is mandatory, as
metadata is used to store the size, and normal freeing of the list will
cause memory issues.
Fixes:
- More consistency with errno values
Notes:
- sqlhist is now officially built
- make samples creates executables in bin/ from examples in the man pages.
New methods:
- New methods for setting and reading affinity
tracefs_instance_set_affinity_set()
tracefs_instance_set_affinity_raw()
tracefs_instance_set_affinity()
tracefs_instance_get_affinity()
tracefs_instance_get_affinity_raw()
tracefs_instance_get_affinity_set()
- New method to see the system tracers
tracefs_instances()
- New methods to read and clear the error log
tracefs_error_last()
tracefs_error_all()
tracefs_error_clear()
- New methods to modify the string lists
tracefs_list_add()
tracefs_list_size()
- New method to stop the iterator over raw events
tracefs_iterate_stop()
- New methods to make it easier to access event files
tracefs_event_get_file()
tracefs_event_file_read()
tracefs_event_file_write()
tracefs_event_file_append()
tracefs_event_file_clear()
tracefs_event_file_exists()
- New method to get the available filter functions
tracefs_filter_functions()
- New methods to enable or disable tracers
tracefs_tracer_set()
tracefs_tracer_clear()
- New methods for streaming the trace_pipe file
tracefs_trace_pipe_stream()
tracefs_trace_pipe_print()
tracefs_trace_pipe_stop()
- New methods for creating, modifying and destroying dynamic events
tracefs_dynevent_create()
tracefs_dynevent_destroy()
tracefs_dynevent_destroy_all()
tracefs_dynevent_free()
tracefs_dynevent_list_free()
tracefs_dynevent_get_all()
tracefs_dynevent_get()
tracefs_dynevent_info()
tracefs_dynevent_get_event()
- New method to create an event probe (then use dynamic methods above)
tracefs_eprobe_alloc()
- New methods to create kprobes and kretprobes
tracefs_kprobe_alloc()
tracefs_kretprobe_alloc()
tracefs_kprobe_raw()
tracefs_kretprobe_raw()
- New methods for creating, modifying and destroying histograms
tracefs_hist_free()
tracefs_hist_alloc()
tracefs_hist_alloc_2d()
tracefs_hist_alloc_nd()
tracefs_hist_get_name()
tracefs_hist_get_event()
tracefs_hist_get_system()
tracefs_hist_add_key()
tracefs_hist_add_value()
tracefs_hist_add_sort_key()

tracefs_hist_echo_cmd()
tracefs_hist_command()
tracefs_hist_start()
tracefs_hist_pause()
tracefs_hist_continue()
tracefs_hist_reset()
tracefs_hist_destroy()
- New methods for creating, modifying and destroying synthetic events
tracefs_synth_get_name()
tracefs_synth *tracefs_synth_alloc()
tracefs_synth_add_match_field()
tracefs_synth_add_compare_field()
tracefs_synth_add_start_field()
tracefs_synth_add_end_field()

tracefs_synth_echo_cmd()
tracefs_synth_raw_fmt()
tracefs_synth_show_event()
tracefs_synth_show_start_hist()
tracefs_synth_show_end_hist()
tracefs_synth_get_event()
- New methods to modify event filters
tracefs_filter_string_append()

The man page comes with its own program (sqlhist).
Enjoy!
