21 | /* lttvwindowtraces |
22 | * |
23 | * This API consists in two main parts. The first one is for the background |
24 | * computation provider and the second is for the viewer which needs this |
25 | * information. |
26 | * |
27 | * A computation provider, i.e. a statistics computation module or a state |
28 | * computation module, have two things in common : they append data to a trace |
29 | * in an extensible container (LttvAttributes). This extended information, once |
30 | * computed, can be kept all along with the trace and does not need to be |
31 | * recomputed : a computation done on a trace must result in a identical result |
32 | * each time it is done. |
33 | * |
34 | * This API provides functions for computation provider to register their |
35 | * computation functions (or computation functions insertion and removal |
36 | * functions). Once the computation provider is registered with its module name, |
37 | * extended computation for a trace can be requested by any viewer by specifying |
38 | * the module name, as we will describe in a moment. |
39 | * |
40 | * A viewer which needs extended information about a trace must ask for it to be |
41 | * computed by doing a background computation request. It may also ask to be |
42 | * notified of the completion of its request by doing a notify request. |
43 | * |
44 | * Before asking for the computation, it must check for its readiness. If it is |
45 | * ready, the information has already been computed, so it is ready to use. If |
46 | * the information is not ready, in must check whether or not the processing of |
47 | * this task is in progress. If it is, it must not do any background computation |
48 | * request. It must only do a background notification request of the current |
49 | * processing to be informed of its completion. If the information is not ready |
50 | * and not being processed, then the viewer may do a background computation |
51 | * request and add a notify request to the notify queue. |
52 | * |
53 | * When a context takes control of a trace, it must lock the trace. This is a |
54 | * way of ensuring that not conflict will occur between two traceset contexts |
55 | * and shared traces. It will generate an error if a context try to get a lock |
56 | * on a trace what is not unlocked. Upon every trace locking, |
57 | * lttv_process_traceset_synchronize_tracefiles should be used to resynchronize |
58 | * the traces with the trace context information. |
59 | * |
60 | * The usefulness of the lock in this framework can be questionable in a |
61 | * single threaded environment, but can be great in the eventuality of |
62 | * multiple threads. |
