   7 DESCRIPTION
   8 -----------
   9
  10 This test checks that tracepoints can be enabled by using LD_PRELOAD inside a
  11 launcher script. The test application is also compiled with tracepoint
  12 providers linked directly and statically. The same test suite is executed
  13 for every version of the binary.
  14
  15 The resulting trace is verified to make sure it is valid and contains the
  16 expected valuess. This test also verifies that the execution of the demo test
  17 without LD_PRELOAD has not produced any logged events.
  18
  19 Also serves as an example of building and tracing an application with all types
  20 of provider linking.
