LTTng Trace Control ---------------- Please visit http://lttng.org for more information. Latest development can be found at: * Gitweb : http://git.lttng.org/lttng-tools.git/ * Git : git://git.lttng.org/lttng-tools.git REQUIREMENTS: - liburcu Userspace RCU library, by Mathieu Desnoyers and Paul E. McKenney -> Tested with liburcu >= v0.6.6 * Debian/Ubuntu package: liburcu-dev * Git : git://git.lttng.org/userspace-rcu.git * Website: http://lttng.org/urcu - libpopt >= 1.13 Library for parsing command line parameters * Debian/Ubuntu package: libpopt-dev For developers using the git tree: This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to compile the git repository tree : - GNU autotools (automake >=1.10, autoconf >=2.50, autoheader >=2.50) (make sure your system wide "automake" points to a recent version!) - GNU Libtool >=2.2 (for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/) If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the "bootstrap" script in the root of the tree. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS: - Download, compile and install the prerequisites. Then: $ ./configure $ make $ sudo make install $ sudo ldconfig If compiling from the git repository, run ./bootstrap before running the configure script, to generate it. USAGE: Please see doc/quickstart.txt to help you start tracing. You can also use the -h/--help command on 'lttng' and all other commands offered in this tool (Ex: lttng enable-event -h). PACKAGE CONTENTS: This package contains the following elements: - liblttngctl The LTTng tracing control library. - libsessiond-comm (internal) The lttng-sessiond communication library. In order to talk with lttng-sessiond, this library must be used. - libkernel-ctl (internal) Kernel tracer control and ioctl definitions. - libconsumer (internal) Library for Kernel and (optionally) UST trace consumer. - libkernel-consumer (internal) Library for Kernel consumer control - libust-consumer (internal) Library for UST consumer control - libhashtable (internal) Library wrapper over URCU hashtables. - lttng-consumerd The consumer daemon which uses libconsumer. - lttng-sessiond The LTTng session daemon binary. - lttng The LTTng tracer command line control tool. - include (lttng.h --> installed in $(includedir)/lttng/lttng.h) The liblttngctl API header file. - tests Various test programs. - doc Various documentations and quickstart guide.
