simpletrace: Make simpletrace.py a Python module
The simpletrace.py script pretty-prints a binary trace file. Most of the code can be reused by trace file analysis scripts, so turn it into a module. Here is an example script that uses the new simpletrace module: #!/usr/bin/env python # Print virtqueue elements that were never returned to the guest. import simpletrace class VirtqueueRequestTracker(simpletrace.Analyzer): def __init__(self): self.elems = set() def virtqueue_pop(self, vq, elem, in_num, out_num): self.elems.add(elem) def virtqueue_fill(self, vq, elem, length, idx): self.elems.remove(elem) def end(self): for elem in self.elems: print hex(elem) simpletrace.run(VirtqueueRequestTracker()) The simpletrace API is based around the Analyzer class. Users implement an analyzer subclass and add methods for trace events they want to process. A catchall() method is invoked for trace events which do not have dedicated methods. Finally, there are also begin() and end() methods like in sed that can be used to perform setup or print statistics at the end. A binary trace file is processed either with: simpletrace.run(analyzer) # uses command-line args or with: simpletrace.process('path/to/trace-events', 'path/to/trace-file', analyzer) Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@aurel32.net>
