PROLOG         top

       This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The
       Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
       corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
       or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME         top

       posix_trace_start, posix_trace_stop — trace start and stop
       (TRACING)

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <trace.h>

       int posix_trace_start(trace_id_t trid);
       int posix_trace_stop (trace_id_t trid);

DESCRIPTION         top

       The posix_trace_start() and posix_trace_stop() functions,
       respectively, shall start and stop the trace stream identified by
       the argument trid.

       The effect of calling the posix_trace_start() function shall be
       recorded in the trace stream as the POSIX_TRACE_START system
       trace event and the status of the trace stream shall become
       POSIX_TRACE_RUNNING.  If the trace stream is in progress when
       this function is called, the POSIX_TRACE_START system trace event
       shall not be recorded and the trace stream shall continue to run.
       If the trace stream is full, the POSIX_TRACE_START system trace
       event shall not be recorded and the status of the trace stream
       shall not be changed.

       The effect of calling the posix_trace_stop() function shall be
       recorded in the trace stream as the POSIX_TRACE_STOP system trace
       event and the status of the trace stream shall become
       POSIX_TRACE_SUSPENDED.  If the trace stream is suspended when
       this function is called, the POSIX_TRACE_STOP system trace event
       shall not be recorded and the trace stream shall remain
       suspended. If the trace stream is full, the POSIX_TRACE_STOP
       system trace event shall not be recorded and the status of the
       trace stream shall not be changed.

RETURN VALUE         top

       Upon successful completion, these functions shall return a value
       of zero. Otherwise, they shall return the corresponding error
       number.

ERRORS         top

       These functions shall fail if:

       EINVAL The value of the argument trid does not correspond to an
              active trace stream and thus no trace stream was started
              or stopped.

       EINTR  The operation was interrupted by a signal and thus the
              trace stream was not necessarily started or stopped.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES         top

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE         top

       None.

RATIONALE         top

       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS         top

       The posix_trace_start() and posix_trace_stop() functions may be
       removed in a future version.
