babeltrace-log - Convert a Linux kernel ring buffer to a CTF trace
babeltrace-log [--with-timestamps] OUTPUT-PATH
The babeltrace-log tool reads the lines of a Linux kernel ring
buffer, as printed by the dmesg(1) tool, from the standard input
stream and converts them to a CTF (see <http://diamon.org/ctf/>)
trace written to the OUTPUT-PATH directory.
Usage example:
$ dmesg | babeltrace-log --with-timestamps my-trace
The events of the generated CTF trace are named string and contain a
single payload string field named str which contains the
corresponding ring buffer line.
By default, babeltrace-log does not try to extract the timestamps of
the kernel ring buffer lines to use them as the created events’s
timestamps. A typical dmesg(1) line looks like this:
[87166.510937] PM: Finishing wakeup.
In the last example, the [87166.510937] part is a timestamp which
could be extracted. You can make babeltrace-log extract timestamps
from lines with the --with-timestamps option.
-t, --with-timestamps
Extract timestamps from the kernel ring buffer lines: set the
created event’s payload’s str field to the rest of the line,
excluding any timestamp prefix.
See the environment variables of babeltrace-source.text.dmesg(7),
babeltrace-filter.utils.muxer(7), and babeltrace-sink.ctf.fs(7).
Babeltrace library
BABELTRACE_COMMON_LOG_LEVEL
Common functions’s log level. The available values are the same
as for the --log-level option of babeltrace(1).
BABELTRACE_COMPAT_LOG_LEVEL
Compatibility functions’s log level. The available values are the
same as for the --log-level option of babeltrace(1).
BABELTRACE_TERM_COLOR
Force the terminal color support. The available values are:
AUTO
Only emit terminal color codes when the standard output and
error streams are connected to a color-capable terminal.
NEVER
Never emit terminal color codes.
ALWAYS
Always emit terminal color codes.
BABELTRACE_DISABLE_PYTHON_PLUGINS
Set to 1 to disable the loading of any Babeltrace Python plugin.
BABELTRACE_LOGGING_GLOBAL_LEVEL
Babeltrace library’s global log level. The available values are
the same as for the --log-level option of babeltrace(1)
BABELTRACE_NO_DLCLOSE
Set to 1 to make the Babeltrace library leave any dynamically
loaded modules (plugins and Python plugin provider) open at exit.
This can be useful for debugging purposes.
BABELTRACE_PLUGIN_PATH
Colon-separated list of directories, in order, in which dynamic
plugins can be found before other directories are considered.
$HOME/.local/lib/babeltrace/plugins
User plugin directory.
/usr/local/lib/babeltrace/plugins
System plugin directory.
0 on success, 1 otherwise.
If you encounter any issue or usability problem, please report it on
