6Here are the roadmaps for the LTTV and LTTng development. I use a priority indice
7for the TODO items :<br>
8(1) : very high priority<br>
9(10): lowest priority<br>

12Dependencies are written between parenthesis ( ).<br>
13The # symbol marks who is currently working on the item.<br>

18* TODO<br>
19(4) create a event rate graphical view : Will be useful in conjonction with the
20 filter.<br>
21 # <A HREF="mailto:Parisa Heidari <parisa.heidari@polymtl.ca>">Parisa Heidari</A><br>
22(7) create an analysis of function time (like a precise gprof)<br>
23 -> with gcc -f inline-functions<br>
24(7) Create a hardware counter viewer (rates : L1 cache miss, page faults, interrupts...).<br>
25(10) Add cancel button to LTTV filter GUI window.

32(2) add efficient and secure user space tracing. (1 month)<br>
33(3) integrate LTTng State Dump : missing irq and process state.<br>
34 # <A HREF="mailto:Jean-Hugues Deschenes <jean-hugues.deschenes@polymtl.ca>">Jean-Hugues Deschenes</A><br>
35(4) efficient dynamic event filtering while recording trace.<br>

37(5) Integrate LTTng and lttd with LKCD.<br>
38(7) add gcc -finstrument-functions instrumentation<br>
39(7) Integrate periodical dump of perfctr hardware counters.<br>

60* TODO (low priority)<br>
61enhance RPM packages for lttng kernel<br>
62Integrate header generation (genevent) in kernel build system.<br>
63Multithreaded lttd.<br>
64Find a different way to printk from instrumentation : forbidden from schedule
65and wakeup (causes a deadlock). -> Modify printk so it uses LTTng tracer!<br>
66Export channels via network sockets instead of writing them to disk.<br>
67Export buffers with time constraint for "live" visualisation. Use
68ltt_force_switch periodically from a timer to insure slow channels does not
69interfere with viewing.<br>
70<br>
71* Need to be discussed<br>
72Drop ltt-module-register and ltt-module-unregister, use exported variables.<br>
73drop ltt_filter_control, use functions pointers instead.<br>
74Merge facilities headers into one big header.<br>
75Change the name of XML files from XML to something else.<br>
76Remove ltt-base.c.<br>
77<br>
