This patchset adds support for tracing guest kernels to trace-cmd.

Changes in v6:
 - added specialized data transfer path over FIFOs making single splice() per
   iteration
 - made tracecmd_msg_recv_trace_req/tracecmd_msg_recv_trace_resp more defensive
   to invalid messages

Changes in v5:
 - add FIFOs transport for tracing data
 - fixed a bug in tracecmd_msg_wait_close

Changes in v4:
 - detect and use splice(2) on vsock sockets if possible
 - switch port numbers to unsigned int
 - trace-cmd record --date flag is now set for all guests if provided by the user
 - removed grow_cap and exponential buffer size growth

Changes in v3:
 - addressed Steven's feedback
 - detect and disable guest tracing if <linux/vm_sockets.h> is not available
 - the --date flag is now treated as global for all guest instances
 - fixed a bug that caused --date to be ignored for host tracing data when tracing guests

Changes in v2:
 - rebased on top of protocol V3
 - fixed system clock timestamps with the --date flag


Slavomir Kaslev (10):
  trace-cmd: Add tracecmd_create_recorder_virt function
  trace-cmd: Add TRACE_REQ and TRACE_RESP messages
  trace-cmd: Add buffer instance flags for tracing in guest and agent
    context
  trace-cmd: Add VM kernel tracing over vsockets transport
  trace-cmd: Use splice(2) for vsockets if available
  trace-cmd: Add `trace-cmd setup-guest` command
  trace-cmd: Try to autodetect number of guest CPUs in setup-guest if
    not specified
  trace-cmd: Add setup-guest flag for attaching FIFOs to the guest VM
    config
  trace-cmd: Add splice() recording from FIFO without additional pipe
    buffer
  trace-cmd: Add VM tracing over FIFOs transport

Steven Rostedt (VMware) (1):
  trace-cmd: Detect if vsockets are available
