  27 /* A trace is associated with a tracing session run on a single, possibly
  28    multi-cpu, system. It is defined as a pathname to a directory containing
  29    all the relevant trace files. All the tracefiles for a trace were
  30    generated in a single system for the same time period by the same
  31    trace daemon. They simply contain different events. Typically control
  32    tracefiles contain the important events (process creations and registering
  33    tracing facilities) for all CPUs, and one file for each CPU contains all
  34    the events for that CPU. All the tracefiles within the same trace directory
  35    then use the exact same id numbers for event types.
  36
  37    A tracefile (LttTracefile) contains a list of events (LttEvent) sorted
  38    by time for each CPU; events from different CPUs may be slightly out of
  39    order, especially using the (possibly drifting) cycle counters as
  40    time unit.
  41
  42    A facility is a list of event types (LttEventType), declared in a special
  43    eventdefs file. A corresponding checksum differentiates different
  44    facilities which would have the same name but a different content
  45    (e.g., different versions). The files are stored within the trace
  46    directory and are accessed automatically upon opening a trace.
  47    The list of facilities (and associated checksum) used in a trace
  48    must be known in order to properly decode the contained events. An event
  49    is stored in the "facilities" control tracefile to denote each different
  50    facility used.
  51
  52    Event types (LttEventType) refer to data types (LttType) describing
  53    their content. The data types supported are integer and unsigned integer
  54    (of various length), enumerations (a special form of unsigned integer),
  55    floating point (of various length), fixed size arrays, sequence
  56    (variable sized arrays), structures and null terminated strings.
  57    The elements of arrays and sequences, and the data members for
  58    structures, may be of any nested data type (LttType).
  59
  60    An LttField is a special object to denote a specific, possibly nested,
  61    field within an event type. Suppose an event type socket_connect is a
  62    structure containing two data members, source and destination, of type
  63    socket_address. Type socket_address contains two unsigned integer
  64    data members, ip and port. An LttField is different from a data type
  65    structure member since it can denote a specific nested field, like the
  66    source port, and store associated access information (byte offset within
  67    the event data). The LttField objects are trace specific since the
  68    contained information (byte offsets) may vary with the architecture
  69    associated to the trace. */
