28 * Session descriptor API.
29 *
30 * A session descriptor is an object describing the immutable configuration
31 * options of an LTTng tracing session.
32 *
33 * When used with the lttng_create_session_ext() function, a session descriptor
34 * allows the creation of a tracing session of the following types: regular,
35 * snapshot, and live.
36 *
37 * Certain parameters can be omitted at the time of creation of a session
38 * descriptor to use default or auto-generated values selected by the
39 * session daemon. For instance, a session's name can be left unspecified,
40 * in which case one that is guaranteed not to clash with pre-existing
41 * sessions will be automatically be generated by the session daemon.
42 *
43 * Most session descriptors can be created in either "no output", local, or
44 * network output modes. The various output modes supported vary by session
45 * type.
46 *
47 * Regular session creation functions and output modes:
48 * * "no output": lttng_session_descriptor_create()
49 * * local: lttng_session_descriptor_local_create()
50 * * network: lttng_session_descriptor_network_create()
51 *
52 * Snapshot session creation functions and output modes:
53 * * "no output": lttng_session_descriptor_snapshot_create()
54 * * local: lttng_session_descriptor_snapshot_local_create()
55 * * network: lttng_session_descriptor_snapshot_network_create()
56 *
57 * Live session creation functions and output modes:
58 * * "no output": lttng_session_descriptor_live_create()
59 * * network: lttng_session_descriptor_live_network_create()
60 *
61 * Local output functions accept a 'path' parameter that must be an absolute
62 * path to which the user has write access. When a local output is automatically
63 * generated, it adopts the form:
64 * $LTTNG_HOME/DEFAULT_TRACE_DIR_NAME/SESSION_NAME-CREATION_TIME
65 *
66 * Where CREATION_TIME is time of the creation of the session on the session
67 * daemon in the form "yyyymmdd-hhmmss".
68 *
69 * Network output locations can also be auto-genated by leaving the
70 * 'control_url' and 'data_url' output parameters unspecified. In such cases,
71 * the session daemon will create a default output targeting a relay daemon
72 * at net://127.0.0.1, using the default 'control' and 'data' ports.
73 *
74 * The format of the 'control_url' and 'data_url' paramaters is:
75 * NETPROTO://(HOST | IPADDR)[:CTRLPORT[:DATAPORT]][/TRACEPATH]
76 *
77 * NETPROTO: Network protocol, amongst:
78 * * net: TCP over IPv4; the default values of 'CTRLPORT' and 'DATAPORT'
79 * are defined at build time of the lttng toolchain.
80 * * net6: TCP over IPv6: same default ports as the 'net' protocol.
81 * * tcp: Same as the 'net' protocol.
82 * * tcp6: Same as the 'net6' protocol.
83 *
84 * HOST | IPADDR: Hostname or IP address (IPv6 address *must* be enclosed
85 * in brackets; see RFC 2732).
86 *
87 * CTRLPORT: Control port.
88 *
89 * DATAPORT: Data port.
90 *
91 * TRACEPATH: Path of trace files on the remote file system. This path is
92 * relative to the base output directory set on the relay daemon
93 * end.
94 *
95 * The 'data_url' parameter is optional:
96 * * This parameter is meaningless for local tracing.
97 * * If 'control_url' is specified and a network protocol is used, the
98 * default data port, and the 'control_url' host will be used.
