- Include the tracepoint provider header into all C files using
the provider.
- Example:
- tests/hello/ hello.c tp.c ust_tests_hello.h Makefile.example.*
+ - tests/hello/ hello.c tp.c ust_tests_hello.h Makefile.example.*
2) Compile the Tracepoint Provider separately from the application,
using dynamic linking:
- Enable instrumentation and control tracing with the "lttng" command
from lttng-tools. See lttng-tools doc/quickstart.txt.
+ - Note about dlclose() usage: it is not safe to use dlclose on a
+ provider shared object that is being actively used for tracing due
+ to a lack of reference counting from lttng-ust to the used shared
+ object.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES:
recommended for applications with time constraints on the process
startup time.
+ - The compilation flag "-DLTTNG_UST_DEBUG_VALGRIND" should be enabled
+ at build time to allow liblttng-ust to be used with valgrind
+ (side-effect: disables per-cpu buffering).
