We would need to extend lttng-ust implementation and lttng-tools to add those 
additional contexts. It would make sense to add these. 

Thanks,

Thanks for your prompt response Mathieu. Can I expect this to happen
soonish?

You are the first to show interest in this. It is not on our roadmap for the moment. 

Thanks, 

Mathieu

Adding thread timestamp to event context

[Alok Priyadarshi]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 758 bytes --]

I am trying to add a thread timestamp to trace events. By thread timestamp
I mean the value returned by clock_gettime(CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID):
https://linux.die.net/man/3/clock_gettime

I could do this by creating custom events, but I am wondering if there is
already a way to add this information to event context. I have tried using
the following arguments to lttng-add-context, but none of them add any
additional information:
perf:cpu:cpu-cycles
perf:cpu:cycles
perf:thread:cpu-cycles
perf:thread:cycles

Note that I have only enabled userspace events. I use the following
sequence of commands to capture trace:
lttng create
lttng enable-event --userspace --all
lttng add-context --userspace -t vpid -t vtid -t perf:thread:cycles
lttng start
lttng stop
