Hi，dear




Hello, I have encountered some problems in using LTTNG, which is briefly described as follows. I am eager to get your help.


About the use of the untrack command.It is reproduced as follows:

I type the following commands in turn to start LTTNG, and set up not to monitor a particular process.(For example, I input the "top" command in the terminal, the PID of the "top" process is 72598, now I want LTTNG not to monitor the "top" process)




lttng create my-kernel-session --output=/tmp/my-kernel-trace
lttng add-context -k -t pid
lttng add-context -k -t tid
lttng enable-event --kernel --all
lttng untrack --kernel --pid=72598
lttng start
lttng destroy
babeltrace2 /tmp/my-kernel-trace > babeltrace.txt




Unfortunately, the output still contains the data for PID72598.
Even after I changed "lttng untrack --kernel -- PID =72598" to "LTTNG untrack-u -- PID =72598", this phenomenon still occurred.

How do I use the lttng-untrack command to achieve my goal?




Looking forward to your reply.
thanks,
yuhua

Based on the lttng-track(1) man page: 

The lttng track commands adds one or more values to a process attribute 
tracker. 

A process attribute tracker is an inclusion set of process attributes. 
Tracked processes are allowed to emit events, provided those events are 
targeted by enabled event rules (see lttng-enable-event(1)). 

Tracker values can be removed from an inclusion set with lttng- 
untrack(1). 

What you are looking for is a an "exclusion set", which does not exist at this point 
in LTTng. 

Thanks, 

Mathieu

Thanks，now I understand the tracking policy of lttng.

And I want to know，do you have any plans for "exclusion set"?

Not at this point. None of our customers expressed interest in that feature so far. 

Thanks,
