SYNOPSIS

       #include <time.h>
       #include <trace.h>

       int posix_trace_attr_getclockres(const trace_attr_t *attr,
              struct timespec *resolution);
       int posix_trace_attr_getcreatetime(const trace_attr_t *attr,
              struct timespec *createtime);

       #include <trace.h>
       int posix_trace_attr_getgenversion(const trace_attr_t *attr,
              char *genversion);
       int posix_trace_attr_getname(const trace_attr_t *attr,
              char *tracename);
       int posix_trace_attr_setname(trace_attr_t *attr,
              const char *tracename);

DESCRIPTION

       The  posix_trace_attr_getclockres()  function shall copy the clock resolution of the clock
       used to generate timestamps from the clock-resolution attribute of the  attributes  object
       pointed to by the attr argument into the structure pointed to by the resolution argument.

       The  posix_trace_attr_getcreatetime()  function  shall copy the trace stream creation time
       from the creation-time attribute of the attributes object pointed to by the attr  argument
       into  the  structure  pointed  to  by the createtime argument. The creation-time attribute
       shall represent the time of creation of the trace stream.

       The posix_trace_attr_getgenversion() function shall copy  the  string  containing  version
       information  from  the generation-version attribute of the attributes object pointed to by
       the attr argument into the string pointed to by the genversion  argument.  The  genversion
       argument   shall   be  the  address  of  a  character  array  which  can  store  at  least
       {TRACE_NAME_MAX} characters.

       The posix_trace_attr_getname() function shall copy the string containing  the  trace  name
       from  the  trace-name  attribute  of the attributes object pointed to by the attr argument
       into the string pointed to by the tracename argument. The tracename argument shall be  the
       address of a character array which can store at least {TRACE_NAME_MAX} characters.

       The  posix_trace_attr_setname() function shall set the name in the trace-name attribute of
       the attributes object pointed to by  the  attr  argument,  using  the  trace  name  string
       supplied   by   the  tracename  argument.  If  the  supplied  string  contains  more  than
       {TRACE_NAME_MAX} characters,  the  name  copied  into  the  trace-name  attribute  may  be
       truncated to one less than the length of {TRACE_NAME_MAX} characters. The default value is
       a null string.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, these functions shall return a value of zero. Otherwise,  they
       shall return the corresponding error number.

       If  successful,  the  posix_trace_attr_getclockres()  function stores the clock-resolution
       attribute value in the object pointed to by resolution. Otherwise,  the  content  of  this
       object is unspecified.

       If  successful,  the  posix_trace_attr_getcreatetime()  function  stores  the trace stream
       creation time in the object pointed to by  createtime.  Otherwise,  the  content  of  this
       object is unspecified.

       If  successful,  the  posix_trace_attr_getgenversion()  function  stores the trace version
       information in the string pointed to by genversion. Otherwise, the content of this  string
       is unspecified.

       If successful, the posix_trace_attr_getname() function stores the trace name in the string
       pointed to by tracename. Otherwise, the content of this string is unspecified.

ERRORS

       The           posix_trace_attr_getclockres(),            posix_trace_attr_getcreatetime(),
       posix_trace_attr_getgenversion(), and posix_trace_attr_getname() functions may fail if:

       EINVAL The value specified by one of the arguments is invalid.
