DESCRIPTION

       The Linux Trace Toolkit: next generation <http://lttng.org/> is an open source software
       package used for correlated tracing of the Linux kernel, user applications, and user
       libraries.

       LTTng-UST is the user space tracing component of the LTTng project. It is a port to user
       space of the low-overhead tracing capabilities of the LTTng Linux kernel tracer. The
       liblttng-ust library is used to trace user applications and libraries.

           Note
           This man page is about the liblttng-ust library. The LTTng-UST project also provides
           Java and Python packages to trace applications written in those languages. How to
           instrument and trace Java and Python applications is documented in the online LTTng
           documentation <http://lttng.org/docs/>.

       There are three ways to use liblttng-ust:

       •   Using the lttng_ust_tracef(3) API, which is similar to printf(3).

       •   Using the lttng_ust_tracelog(3) API, which is lttng_ust_tracef(3) with a log level
           parameter.

       •   Defining your own tracepoints. See the Creating a tracepoint provider section below.

   Compatibility with previous APIs
       Since LTTng-UST 2.13, the LTTNG_UST_COMPAT_API_VERSION definition controls which LTTng-UST
       APIs are available (compiled):

       Undefined
           All APIs are available.

       N (0 or positive integer)
           API version N, and all the following existing APIs, are available. Previous APIs are
           not available (not compiled).

       The following table shows the mapping from LTTng-UST versions (up to LTTng-UST 2.13.5) to
       available API versions:

       ┌──────────────────┬────────────────────────┐
       │LTTng-UST versionAvailable API versions │
       ├──────────────────┼────────────────────────┤
       │                  │                        │
       │2.0 to 2.12       │ 0                      │
       ├──────────────────┼────────────────────────┤
       │                  │                        │
       │2.13              │ 0 and 1                │
       └──────────────────┴────────────────────────┘

       This manual page only documents version 1 of the API.

       If you wish to have access to version 0 of the API (for example, the tracepoint(),
       ctf_integer(), and TRACEPOINT_EVENT() macros), then either don’t define
       LTTNG_UST_COMPAT_API_VERSION, or define it to 0 before including any LTTng-UST header.

   Creating a tracepoint provider
       Creating a tracepoint provider is the first step of using liblttng-ust. The next steps
       are:

       •   Instrumenting your application with lttng_ust_tracepoint() calls

       •   Building your application with LTTng-UST support, either statically or dynamically.

       A tracepoint provider is a compiled object containing the event probes corresponding to
       your custom tracepoint definitions. A tracepoint provider contains the code to get the
       size of an event and to serialize it, amongst other things.

       To create a tracepoint provider, start with the following tracepoint provider header
       template:

           #undef LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROVIDER
           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROVIDER my_provider

           #undef LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_INCLUDE
           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_INCLUDE "./tp.h"

           #if !defined(_TP_H) || \
               defined(LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_HEADER_MULTI_READ)
           #define _TP_H

           #include <lttng/tracepoint.h>

           /*
            * LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT(), LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS(),
            * LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_INSTANCE(),
            * LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL(), and `LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_ENUM()`
            * are used here.
            */

           #endif /* _TP_H */

           #include <lttng/tracepoint-event.h>

       In this template, the tracepoint provider is named my_provider
       (LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROVIDER definition). The file needs to bear the name of the
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_INCLUDE definition (tp.h in this case). Between #include
       <lttng/tracepoint.h> and #endif go the invocations of the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT(),
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS(), LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_INSTANCE(),
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL(), and LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_ENUM() macros.

           Note
           You can avoid writing the prologue and epilogue boilerplate in the template file above
           by using the lttng-gen-tp(1) tool shipped with LTTng-UST.

       The tracepoint provider header file needs to be included in a source file which looks like
       this:

           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_CREATE_PROBES

           #include "tp.h"

       Together, those two files (let’s call them tp.h and tp.c) form the tracepoint provider
       sources, ready to be compiled.

       You can create multiple tracepoint providers to be used in a single application, but each
       one must have its own header file.

       The LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() usage section below shows how to use the
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() macro to define the actual tracepoints in the tracepoint
       provider header file.

       See the EXAMPLE section below for a complete example.

   LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() usage
       The LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() macro is used in a template provider header file (see the
       Creating a tracepoint provider section above) to define LTTng-UST tracepoints.

       The LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() usage template is as follows:

           LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT(
               /* Tracepoint provider name */
               my_provider,

               /* Tracepoint/event name */
               my_tracepoint,

               /* List of tracepoint arguments (input) */
               LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS(
                   ...
               ),

               /* List of fields of eventual event (output) */
               LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS(
                   ...
               )
           )

       The LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS() macro contains the input arguments of the tracepoint. Those
       arguments can be used in the argument expressions of the output fields defined in
       LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS().

       The format of the LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS() parameters is: C type, then argument name; repeat as
       needed, up to ten times. For example:

           LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS(
               int, my_int,
               const char *, my_string,
               FILE *, my_file,
               double, my_float,
               struct my_data *, my_data
           )

       The LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS() macro contains the output fields of the tracepoint, that is, the
       actual data that can be recorded in the payload of an event emitted by this tracepoint.

       The LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS() macro contains a list of lttng_ust_field_*() macros NOT
       separated by commas. The available macros are documented in the Available
       lttng_ust_field_*() field type macros section below.

   Available field macros
       This section documents the available lttng_ust_field_*() macros that can be inserted in
       the LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS() macro of the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() macro.

           Number of elements in array/sequence. This must be known at compile time.

       enum_name
           Name of an enumeration field previously defined with the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_ENUM()
           macro. See the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_ENUM() usage section for more information.

       expr
           C expression resulting in the field’s value. This expression can use one or more
           arguments passed to the tracepoint. The arguments of a given tracepoint are defined in
           the LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS() macro (see the Creating a tracepoint provider section above).

       field_name
           Event field name (C identifier syntax, NOT a literal string).

       float_type
           Float C type (float or double). The size of this type determines the size of the
           floating point number field.

       int_type
           Integer C type. The size of this type determines the size of the integer/enumeration
           field.

       len_expr
           C expression resulting in the sequence’s length. This expression can use one or more
           arguments passed to the tracepoint.

       len_type
           Unsigned integer C type of sequence’s length.

       prov_name
           Tracepoint provider name. This must be the same as the tracepoint provider name used
           in a previous field definition.

       The _nowrite versions omit themselves from the recorded trace, but are otherwise
       identical. Their primary purpose is to make some of the event context available to the
       event filters without having to commit the data to sub-buffers. See lttng-enable-event(1)
       to learn more about dynamic event filtering.

       See the EXAMPLE section below for a complete example.

   LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_ENUM() usage
       An enumeration field is a list of mappings between an integers, or a range of integers,
       and strings (sometimes called labels or enumerators). Enumeration fields can be used to
       have a more compact trace when the possible values for a field are limited.

       An enumeration field is defined with the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_ENUM() macro:

           LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_ENUM(
               /* Tracepoint provider name */
               my_provider,

               /* Enumeration name (unique in the whole tracepoint provider) */
               my_enum,

               /* Enumeration mappings */
               LTTNG_UST_TP_ENUM_VALUES(
                   ...
               )
           )

       LTTNG_UST_TP_ENUM_VALUES() contains a list of enumeration mappings, NOT separated by
       commas. Two macros can be used in the LTTNG_UST_TP_ENUM_VALUES():
       lttng_ust_field_enum_value() and lttng_ust_field_enum_range().

       lttng_ust_field_enum_value() is a single value mapping:

           lttng_ust_field_enum_value(label, value)

       This macro maps the given label string to the value value.

       lttng_ust_field_enum_range() is a range mapping:

           lttng_ust_field_enum_range(label, start, end)

       This macro maps the given label string to the range of integers from start to end,
       inclusively. Range mappings may overlap, but the behaviour is implementation-defined: each
       trace reader handles overlapping ranges as it wishes.

       See the EXAMPLE section below for a complete example.

   LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS() usage
       A tracepoint class is a class of tracepoints sharing the same field types and names. A
       tracepoint instance is one instance of such a declared tracepoint class, with its own
       event name.

       LTTng-UST creates one event serialization function per tracepoint class. Using
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() creates one tracepoint class per tracepoint definition,
       whereas using LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS() and LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_INSTANCE()
       creates one tracepoint class, and one or more tracepoint instances of this class. In other
       words, many tracepoints can reuse the same serialization code. Reusing the same code, when
       possible, can reduce cache pollution, thus improve performance.

       The LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS() macro accepts the same parameters as the
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() macro, except that instead of an event name, its second
       parameter is the tracepoint class name:

           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROVIDER my_provider

           /* ... */

           LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS(
               /* Tracepoint class provider name */
               my_provider,

               /* Tracepoint class name */
               my_tracepoint_class,

               /* List of tracepoint arguments (input) */
               LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS(
                   ...
               ),

               /* List of fields of eventual event (output) */
               LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS(
                   ...
               )
           )

       Once the tracepoint class is defined, you can create as many tracepoint instances as
       needed:

           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROVIDER natality

           /* ... */

           LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_INSTANCE(
               /* Name of the tracepoint class provider */
               my_provider,

               /* Tracepoint class name */
               my_tracepoint_class,

               /* Name of the local (instance) tracepoint provider */
               natality,

               /* Tracepoint/event name */
               my_tracepoint,

               /* List of tracepoint arguments (input) */
               LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS(
                   ...
               )
           )

       As you can see, the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_INSTANCE() does not contain the
       LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS() macro, because they are defined at the
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS() level.

       Note that the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_INSTANCE() macro requires two provider names:

       •   The name of the tracepoint class provider (my_provider in the example above).

           This is the same as the first argument of the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_CLASS()
           expansion to refer to.

       •   The name of the local, or instance, provider (natality in the example above).

           This is the provider name which becomes the prefix part of the name of the events
           which such a tracepoint creates.

       The two provider names may be different if the tracepoint class and the tracepoint
       instance macros are in two different translation units.

       See the EXAMPLE section below for a complete example.

   LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL() usage
       Optionally, a log level can be assigned to a defined tracepoint. Assigning different
       levels of severity to tracepoints can be useful: when controlling tracing sessions, you
       can choose to only enable events falling into a specific log level range using the
       --loglevel and --loglevel-only options of the lttng-enable-event(1) command.

       Log levels are assigned to tracepoints that are already defined using the
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL() macro. The latter must be used after having used
       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT() or LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT_INSTANCE() for a given
       tracepoint. The LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL() macro is used as follows:

           LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL(
               /* Tracepoint provider name */
               my_provider,

               /* Tracepoint/event name */
               my_tracepoint,

               /* Log level */
               LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_INFO
           )

       The available log level definitions are:

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_EMERG
           System is unusable.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_ALERT
           Action must be taken immediately.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_CRIT
           Critical conditions.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_ERR
           Error conditions.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_WARNING
           Warning conditions.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_NOTICE
           Normal, but significant, condition.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_INFO
           Informational message.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG_SYSTEM
           Debug information with system-level scope (set of programs).

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG_PROGRAM
           Debug information with program-level scope (set of processes).

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG_PROCESS
           Debug information with process-level scope (set of modules).

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG_MODULE
           Debug information with module (executable/library) scope (set of units).

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG_UNIT
           Debug information with compilation unit scope (set of functions).

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG_FUNCTION
           Debug information with function-level scope.

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG_LINE
           Debug information with line-level scope (default log level).

       LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_LOGLEVEL_DEBUG
           Debug-level message.

       See the EXAMPLE section below for a complete example.

   Instrumenting your application
       Once the tracepoint provider is created (see the Creating a tracepoint provider section
       above), you can instrument your application with the defined tracepoints thanks to the
       lttng_ust_tracepoint() macro:

           #define lttng_ust_tracepoint(prov_name, t_name, ...)

       With:

       prov_name
           Tracepoint provider name.

       t_name
           Tracepoint/event name.

       ...
           Tracepoint arguments, if any.

       Make sure to include the tracepoint provider header file anywhere you use
       lttng_ust_tracepoint() for this provider.

           Note
           Even though LTTng-UST supports lttng_ust_tracepoint() call site duplicates having the
           same provider and tracepoint names, it is recommended to use a provider/tracepoint
           name pair only once within the application source code to help map events back to
           their call sites when analyzing the trace.

       Sometimes, arguments to the tracepoint are expensive to compute (take call stack, for
       example). To avoid the computation when the tracepoint is disabled, you can use the
       lttng_ust_tracepoint_enabled() and lttng_ust_do_tracepoint() macros:

           #define lttng_ust_tracepoint_enabled(prov_name, t_name)
           #define lttng_ust_do_tracepoint(prov_name, t_name, ...)

       lttng_ust_tracepoint_enabled() returns a non-zero value if the tracepoint named t_name
       from the provider named prov_name is enabled at run time.

       lttng_ust_do_tracepoint() is like lttng_ust_tracepoint(), except that it doesn’t check if
       the tracepoint is enabled. Using lttng_ust_tracepoint() with
       lttng_ust_tracepoint_enabled() is dangerous since lttng_ust_tracepoint() also contains the
       lttng_ust_tracepoint_enabled() check, thus a race condition is possible in this situation:

           if (lttng_ust_tracepoint_enabled(my_provider, my_tracepoint)) {
               stuff = prepare_stuff();
           }

           lttng_ust_tracepoint(my_provider, my_tracepoint, stuff);

       If the tracepoint is enabled after the condition, then stuff is not prepared: the emitted
       event will either contain wrong data, or the whole application could crash (segmentation
       fault, for example).

           Note
           Neither lttng_ust_tracepoint_enabled() nor lttng_ust_do_tracepoint() have a
           STAP_PROBEV() call, so if you need it, you should emit this call yourself.

   Statically linking the tracepoint provider
       With the static linking method, compiled tracepoint providers are copied into the target
       application.

       Define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_DEFINE definition below the LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_CREATE_PROBES
       definition in the tracepoint provider source:

           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_CREATE_PROBES
           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_DEFINE

           #include "tp.h"

       Create the tracepoint provider object file:

           $ cc -c -I. tp.c

           Note
           Although an application instrumented with LTTng-UST tracepoints can be compiled with a
           C++ compiler, tracepoint probes should be compiled with a C compiler.

       At this point, you can archive this tracepoint provider object file, possibly with other
       object files of your application or with other tracepoint provider object files, as a
       static library:

           $ ar rc tp.a tp.o

       Using a static library does have the advantage of centralising the tracepoint providers
       objects so they can be shared between multiple applications. This way, when the tracepoint
       provider is modified, the source code changes don’t have to be patched into each
       application’s source code tree. The applications need to be relinked after each change,
       but need not to be otherwise recompiled (unless the tracepoint provider’s API changes).

       Then, link your application with this object file (or with the static library containing
       it) and with liblttng-ust and libdl (libc on a BSD system):

           $ cc -o app tp.o app.o -llttng-ust -ldl

   Dynamically loading the tracepoint provider
       The second approach to package the tracepoint provider is to use the dynamic loader: the
       library and its member functions are explicitly sought, loaded at run time.

       In this scenario, the tracepoint provider is compiled as a shared object.

       The process to create the tracepoint provider shared object is pretty much the same as the
       static linking method, except that:

       •   Since the tracepoint provider is not part of the application,
           LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_DEFINE must be defined, for each tracepoint provider, in exactly
           one source file of the applicationLTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROBE_DYNAMIC_LINKAGE must be defined next to
           LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_DEFINE

       Regarding LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_DEFINE and LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROBE_DYNAMIC_LINKAGE, the
       recommended practice is to use a separate C source file in your application to define
       them, then include the tracepoint provider header files afterwards. For example, as tp-
       define.c:

           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_DEFINE
           #define LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_PROBE_DYNAMIC_LINKAGE

           #include "tp.h"

       The tracepoint provider object file used to create the shared library is built like it is
       using the static linking method, but with the -fpic option:

           $ cc -c -fpic -I. tp.c

       It is then linked as a shared library like this:

           $ cc -shared -Wl,--no-as-needed -o tp.so tp.o -llttng-ust

       This tracepoint provider shared object isn’t linked with the user application: it must be
       loaded manually. This is why the application is built with no mention of this tracepoint
       provider, but still needs libdl:

           $ cc -o app app.o tp-define.o -ldl

       There are two ways to dynamically load the tracepoint provider shared object:

       •   Load it manually from the application using dlopen(3)

       •   Make the dynamic loader load it with the LD_PRELOAD environment variable (see
           ld.so(8))

       If the application does not dynamically load the tracepoint provider shared object using
       one of the methods above, tracing is disabled for this application, and the events are not
       listed in the output of lttng-list(1).

       Note that it is not safe to use dlclose(3) on a tracepoint provider shared object that is
       being actively used for tracing, due to a lack of reference counting from LTTng-UST to the
       shared object.

       For example, statically linking a tracepoint provider to a shared object which is to be
       dynamically loaded by an application (a plugin, for example) is not safe: the shared
       object, which contains the tracepoint provider, could be dynamically closed (dlclose(3))
       at any time by the application.

       To instrument a shared object, either:

       •   Statically link the tracepoint provider to the application, or

       •   Build the tracepoint provider as a shared object (following the procedure shown in
           this section), and preload it when tracing is needed using the LD_PRELOAD environment
           variable.

   Using LTTng-UST with daemons
       Some extra care is needed when using liblttng-ust with daemon applications that call
       fork(2), clone(2), or BSD’s rfork(2) without a following exec(3) family system call. The
       library liblttng-ust-fork.so needs to be preloaded before starting the application with
       the LD_PRELOAD environment variable (see ld.so(8)).

       To use liblttng-ust with a daemon application which closes file descriptors that were not
       opened by it, preload the liblttng-ust-fd.so library before you start the application.
       Typical use cases include daemons closing all file descriptors after fork(2), and buggy
       applications doing “double-closes”.

   Context information
       Context information can be prepended by the LTTng-UST tracer before each event, or before
       specific events.

       Context fields can be added to specific channels using lttng-add-context(1).

       The following context fields are supported by LTTng-UST:

       General context fields

           cpu_id
               CPU ID.

                   Note
                   This context field is always enabled, and it cannot be added with lttng-add-
                   context(1). Its main purpose is to be used for dynamic event filtering. See
                   lttng-enable-event(1) for more information about event filtering.

           ip
               Instruction pointer: enables recording the exact address from which an event was
               emitted. This context field can be used to reverse-lookup the source location that
               caused the event to be emitted.

           pthread_id
               POSIX thread identifier.

               Can be used on architectures where pthread_t maps nicely to an unsigned long type.

       Process context fields

           procname
               Thread name, as set by exec(3) or prctl(2). It is recommended that programs set
               their thread name with prctl(2) before hitting the first tracepoint for that
               thread.

           vpid
               Virtual process ID: process ID as seen from the point of view of the current
               process ID namespace (see pid_namespaces(7)).

           vtid
               Virtual thread ID: thread ID as seen from the point of view of the current process
               ID namespace (see pid_namespaces(7)).

       perf context fields

           perf:thread:COUNTER
               perf counter named COUNTER. Use lttng add-context --list to list the available
               perf counters.

               Only available on IA-32 and x86-64 architectures.

           perf:thread:raw:rN:NAME
               perf counter with raw ID N and custom name NAME. See lttng-add-context(1) for more
               details.

       Namespace context fields (see namespaces(7))

           cgroup_ns
               Inode number of the current control group namespace (see cgroup_namespaces(7)) in
               the proc file system.

           ipc_ns
               Inode number of the current IPC namespace (see ipc_namespaces(7)) in the proc file
               system.

           mnt_ns
               Inode number of the current mount point namespace (see mount_namespaces(7)) in the
               proc file system.

           net_ns
               Inode number of the current network namespace (see network_namespaces(7)) in the
               proc file system.

           pid_ns
               Inode number of the current process ID namespace (see pid_namespaces(7)) in the
               proc file system.

           time_ns
               Inode number of the current clock namespace (see time_namespaces(7)) in the proc
               file system.

           user_ns
               Inode number of the current user namespace (see user_namespaces(7)) in the proc
               file system.

           uts_ns
               Inode number of the current UTS namespace (see uts_namespaces(7)) in the proc file
               system.

       Credential context fields (see credentials(7))

           vuid
               Virtual real user ID: real user ID as seen from the point of view of the current
               user namespace (see user_namespaces(7)).

           vgid
               Virtual real group ID: real group ID as seen from the point of view of the current
               user namespace (see user_namespaces(7)).

           veuid
               Virtual effective user ID: effective user ID as seen from the point of view of the
               current user namespace (see user_namespaces(7)).

           vegid
               Virtual effective group ID: effective group ID as seen from the point of view of
               the current user namespace (see user_namespaces(7)).

           vsuid
               Virtual saved set-user ID: saved set-user ID as seen from the point of view of the
               current user namespace (see user_namespaces(7)).

           vsgid
               Virtual saved set-group ID: saved set-group ID as seen from the point of view of
               the current user namespace (see user_namespaces(7)).

   LTTng-UST state dump
       If an application that uses liblttng-ust becomes part of a tracing session, information
       about its currently loaded shared objects, their build IDs, and their debug link
       information are emitted as events by the tracer.

       The following LTTng-UST state dump events exist and must be enabled to record application
       state dumps. Note that, during the state dump phase, LTTng-UST can also emit shared
       library load/unload events (see Shared library load/unload tracking below).

       lttng_ust_statedump:start
           Emitted when the state dump begins.

           This event has no fields.

       lttng_ust_statedump:end
           Emitted when the state dump ends. Once this event is emitted, it is guaranteed that,
           for a given process, the state dump is complete.

           This event has no fields.

       lttng_ust_statedump:bin_info
           Emitted when information about a currently loaded executable or shared object is
           found.

   Shared library load/unload tracking
       The LTTng-UST state dump and the LTTng-UST helper library to instrument the dynamic linker
       (see liblttng-ust-dl(3)) can emit shared library load/unload tracking events.

   Detect if LTTng-UST is loaded
       To detect if liblttng-ust is loaded from an application:

        1. Define the lttng_ust_loaded weak symbol globally:

               int lttng_ust_loaded __attribute__((weak));

           This weak symbol is set by the constructor of liblttng-ust.

        2. Test lttng_ust_loaded where needed:

               /* ... */

               if (lttng_ust_loaded) {
                   /* LTTng-UST is loaded */
               } else {
                   /* LTTng-UST is NOT loaded */
               }

               /* ... */

EXAMPLE

           Note
           A few examples are available in the directory of LTTng-UST’s source tree.

       This example shows all the features documented in the previous sections. The static
       linking method is chosen here to link the application with the tracepoint provider.

       You can compile the source files and link them together statically like this:

           $ cc -c -I. tp.c
           $ cc -c app.c
           $ cc -o app tp.o app.o -llttng-ust -ldl

       Using the lttng(1) tool, create an LTTng tracing session, enable all the events of this
       tracepoint provider, and start tracing:

           $ lttng create my-session
           $ lttng enable-event --userspace 'my_provider:*'
           $ lttng start

       You may also enable specific events:

           $ lttng enable-event --userspace my_provider:big_event
           $ lttng enable-event --userspace my_provider:event_instance2

       Run the application:

           $ ./app some arguments

       Stop the current tracing session and inspect the recorded events:

           $ lttng stop
           $ lttng view

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       LTTNG_HOME
           Alternative user’s home directory. This variable is useful when the user running the
           instrumented application has a non-writable home directory.

           Unix sockets used for the communication between liblttng-ust and the LTTng session and
           consumer daemons (part of the LTTng-tools project) are located in a specific directory
           under $LTTNG_HOME (or $HOME if $LTTNG_HOME is not set).

       LTTNG_UST_ALLOW_BLOCKING
           If set, allow the application to retry event tracing when there’s no space left for
           the event record in the sub-buffer, therefore effectively blocking the application
           until space is made available or the configured timeout is reached.

           To allow an application to block during tracing, you also need to specify a blocking
           timeout when you create a channel with the --blocking-timeout option of the lttng-
           enable-channel(1) command.

           This option can be useful in workloads generating very large trace data throughput,
           where blocking the application is an acceptable trade-off to prevent discarding event
           records.

               Warning
               Setting this environment variable may significantly affect application timings.

       LTTNG_UST_ABORT_ON_CRITICAL
           If set, abort the instrumented application on a critical error message.

       LTTNG_UST_CLOCK_PLUGIN
           Path to the shared object which acts as the clock override plugin. An example of such
           a plugin can be found in the LTTng-UST documentation under

       LTTNG_UST_DEBUG
           If set, enable liblttng-ust's debug and error output.

       LTTNG_UST_GETCPU_PLUGIN
           Path to the shared object which acts as the getcpu() override plugin. An example of
           such a plugin can be found in the LTTng-UST documentation under

       LTTNG_UST_REGISTER_TIMEOUT
           Waiting time for the registration done session daemon command before proceeding to
           execute the main program (milliseconds).

           The value 0 means do not wait. The value -1 means wait forever. Setting this
           environment variable to 0 is recommended for applications with time constraints on the
           process startup time.

           Default: 3000.

       LTTNG_UST_WITHOUT_BADDR_STATEDUMP
           If set, prevents liblttng-ust from performing a base address state dump (see the
           LTTng-UST state dump section above).

       LTTNG_UST_WITHOUT_PROCNAME_STATEDUMP
           If set, prevents liblttng-ust from performing a procname state dump (see the LTTng-UST
           state dump section above).
