DESCRIPTION ----------- The `lttng untrack` command disallows one or more processes to record LTTng events based on their attributes within: With the option:--session='SESSION' option:: The tracing session named 'SESSION'. Without the option:--session option:: The current tracing session (see man:lttng-concepts(7) to learn more about the current tracing session). See man:lttng-concepts(7) to learn more about tracing sessions and recording event rules. The `untrack` command removes values from _inclusion sets_ of process attributes. See man:lttng-track(1) to learn more about inclusion sets. Inclusion set example ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A common operation is to create a tracing session (see man:lttng-create(1)), remove all the entries from the Linux kernel process ID inclusion set, start tracing, and then manually add PIDs while the tracing session is active. Assume the maximum system PID is 7 for this example. .
