3 | <center>LTTV & LTTng roadmap</center> |
| 4 | Here are roadmaps for the LTTV and LTTng development. I use a priority indice |
| 5 | for the TODO items :<br> |
| 6 | 1 : very high priority<br> |
| 7 | 10: lowest priority<br> |

10 | <big>LTTV Roadmap<small><br> |
| 11 | <br> |
| 12 | * TODO<br> |
| 13 | migrate align to lttv parser.<br> |
| 14 | create a event rate graphical view : Will be useful in conjonction with the |
| 15 | filter.<br> |
| 16 | create an analysis of function time (like a precise gprof)<br> |
| 17 | -> with gcc -f inline-functions<br> |
| 18 | <br> |
| 19 | <br> |
| 0c4b3d55 |
20 | * Done<br> |
| 3490c00c |
21 | Buffer aligned on page boundary -> use valloc.<br> |
| d6533ec7 |
22 | per struct (struct align=x) support added to genevent (partial).<br> |
| b8b5f119 |
23 | Add offset align generation for structs to genevent.<br> |
| 81d2643e |
24 | make lttv aware of the per facility long, void* and size_t types.<br> |
| 25 | Read current trace header and buffer header.<br> |
| 0c4b3d55 |
26 | <br> |
| c8a111eb |
27 | <big>LTT Next Generation Roadmap<small><br> |
| 0c4b3d55 |
28 | <br> |
| c8a111eb |
29 | * TODO<br> |
| 30 | make LTT tracing code completely atomic (thus remove locks)<br> |
| 31 | add efficient and secure user space tracing. (1 month)<br> |
| 32 | integrate LTTng State Dump : missing irq and process state.<br> |
| 33 | add genevent full functionnality : alignment, array, sequences, nested |
| 34 | structures.<br> |
| 35 | add gcc -finstrument-functions instrumentation<br> |
| 0c4b3d55 |
36 | <br> |
| 15e89ad6 |
37 | <br> |
| b720b182 |
38 | * Done<br> |
| b720b182 |
39 | remove ltt-headers.h<br> |
| 40 | remove ltt-log.h<br> |
| c9eaf4ed |
41 | Put trace->active later in _ltt_trace_start()<br> |
| 42 | ltt_trace_create() remove sleep in spinlock use GFP_ATOMIC kmalloc<br> |
| 1502fa62 |
43 | Fix the locking of module hooks.<br> |
| 44 | Fix the traps -> disable nested logging for now.<br> |
| 45 | Use per cpu spinlock on trace list.<br> |
| 24c78300 |
46 | Finish the control module, libltt and lttctl : netlink interface<br> |
| baffa645 |
47 | Finish integrating lttctl with lttd.<br> |
| ada84671 |
48 | fix lttctl signal waiting : use a flag.<br> |
| 4e4d11b3 |
49 | Add ltt_write_commit_counter call to genevent.<br> |
| 24c78300 |
50 | Add information in the buffer header : buffer size, etc etc...<br> |
| 51 | -> this information is so small that we can repeat it. Makes flight recorder |
| 52 | easier to decode.<br> |
| 4e4d11b3 |
53 | Add trace start structure to buffer start header.<br> |
| ada84671 |
54 | fix genevent : take no lock if num traces active is 0.<br> |
| 4e4d11b3 |
55 | Add type information per facility : it will help having a standard way |
| 56 | to understand information coming from both kernel space and user space, and deal |
| 57 | easily with 64 bits kernel with 64 and 32 bits processes (and with size_t know |
| 58 | at compile time which can differ inside the same process from one library to |
| 59 | another).<br> |
| 60 | fix structures alignment, array and sequences too. -> trace dynamic.<br> |
| 61 | add per facility alignment (inside structures).<br> |
| 62 | add control of alignment.<br> |
| 0c4b3d55 |
63 | add control for subbuffer size and number of subbuffers.<br> |
| b6dfdc9c |
64 | Add reserve - get TSC - alignment atomicity through the use of cmpxchg.<br> |
| 65 | Add configurable alignment (LTT_ALIGNMENT).<br> |
| 0c4b3d55 |
66 | <br> |
| 67 | <br> |
| b720b182 |
68 | <br> |
| 69 | * TODO (low priority)<br> |
| b720b182 |
70 | Integrate header generation (genevent) in kernel build system.<br> |
| c9eaf4ed |
71 | Multithreaded lttd.<br> |
| baffa645 |
72 | Find a different way to printk from instrumentation : forbidden from schedule |
| 73 | and wakeup (causes a deadlock).<br> |
| b720b182 |
74 | <br> |
| 15e89ad6 |
75 | * Need to be discussed<br> |
| b720b182 |
76 | Drop ltt-module-register and ltt-module-unregister, use exported variables.<br> |
| 77 | RelayFS ioctl interface vs control through LTT netlink interface.<br> |
| 78 | drop ltt_filter_control, use functions pointers instead.<br> |
| b720b182 |
79 | Merge facilities headers into one big header.<br> |
| 80 | Change the name of XML files from XML to something else.<br> |
| 81 | Remove ltt-base.c.<br> |
| 82 | <br> |
| 15e89ad6 |
83 | * Not planned for integration<br> |
| 4f782cda |
84 | Remove the callback struct from the trace struct.<br> |
| 15e89ad6 |
85 | <br> |
| 86 | <br> |
| b720b182 |
87 | <br> |
| 81d2643e |
88 | * lttng patch division (0.4.2+) :<br> |
