[tcf-dev] Does the tcf-client's -S switch work?
|
I tried using tcf-client's -S option (which substitutes a script file to stdin). Here's the script:
connect TCP:131.132.133.134:1534
tcf ltt_control setupTrace "kernel" "0" "fromdutscriptofesr4ondut"
tcf ltt_control setTraceTransport "kernel" "0" "fromdutscriptofesr4ondut" "relay"
tcf ltt_control setChannelSubbufSize "kernel" "0" "fromdutscriptofesr4ondut" "all" 1048576
tcf ltt_control allocTrace "kernel" "0" "fromdutscriptofesr4ondut"
lttctl_client ltt_control writeTraceNetwork "kernel" "0" "fromdutscriptofesr4ondut" "/traces/fromdutscriptofesr4ondut" 2 false false false
tcf ltt_control startTrace "kernel" "0" "fromdutscriptofesr4ondut"
Judging by stdout, everything worked fine:
Connection established with TCP:131.132.32.42:1534
"Action succeeded"
"relay"
1048576
"Action succeeded"
"Trace output path successfully set up (local to tracing controller)"
"Action succeeded"
I'm using lttng-agent/client plugins modified with improved command-line user feedback. There is a one-to-one correspondence between command lines in the script and output lines, as can be seen. The script merely starts the trace; I then do some stuff on the traced machine, and then pause and destroy the trace manually (interactively) using another tcf-client.
However, my destination folder ended up with just one file in it (irq_state_0) of size zero. I then repeated the whole sequence using the tcf-client command-line interface (with the same commands from the script save for a different target folder) and it generated a trace just fine (albeit a toxic one). I then ran the script a second time (with a third target folder) and it gave the same appearance of success and nearly the same actual failure (it fared worse, failing to create even a single file in the target folder).
Has anyone else had success with tcf-client's -S switch?
I'm using dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/dsdp/org.eclipse.tm.tcf/trunk revision 1901, dated 2011-Jul-19.
