17 | DESCRIPTION | |
18 | ----------- | |
19 | The `lttng stop` command stops the various LTTng tracers for a given | |
20 | active tracing session. | |
21 | ||
5de63f6d | 22 | Stopping the LTTng tracers has the effect that all enabled event rules |
fb58d659 PP |
23 | within enabled channels cannot make event sources _emit_ trace events |
24 | anymore. | |
25 | ||
26 | A tracing session with no running tracers is said to be _inactive_. | |
27 | Inactive tracing sessions can be set active using the | |
7c1a4458 | 28 | man:lttng-start(1) command. |

29 | |
30 | If 'SESSION' is omitted, the LTTng tracers are stopped for the current | |
7c1a4458 | 31 | tracing session (see man:lttng-create(1) for more information |
fb58d659 PP |
32 | about the current tracing session). Otherwise, they are stopped for the |
33 | existing tracing session named 'SESSION'. `lttng list` | |
7c1a4458 | 34 | outputs all the existing tracing sessions (see man:lttng-list(1)). |

35 | |
36 | By default, the `lttng stop` command ensures that the tracing session's | |
37 | trace data is valid before returning to the prompt. With the | |
38 | option:--no-wait option, the command finishes immediately, hence a local | |
39 | trace might not be valid when the command is done. In this case, there | |
40 | is no way to know when the trace becomes valid. | |

47 | Do not ensure that the chosen tracing session's trace data is valid |
