NAME         top

       babeltrace-source.ctf.lttng-live - Babeltrace's LTTng live source
       component class

DESCRIPTION         top

       The Babeltrace source.ctf.lttng-live source component class, provided
       by the babeltrace-plugin-ctf(7) plugin, once instantiated, connects
       to a local or remote LTTng (see <http://lttng.org/>) relay daemon and
       emits the received notifications on its output ports. More
       information about LTTng live is available in the LTTng Documentation
       (see <http://lttng.org/docs/#doc-lttng-live>).

       A source.ctf.lttng-live component handles the notifications of one,
       and only one LTTng tracing session. A single LTTng tracing session
       can contain one or more traces, depending on the active tracing
       domains and the configured user space buffering scheme.

       The component connects to an LTTng relay daemon using the url
       parameter.

       For each trace, the component creates one output port per effective
       data stream. The name of a data stream output port is stream-
       followed by its unique LTTng live ID within the tracing session.

       The component names each trace [HOSTNAME/]SESSION/PATH, with:

       HOSTNAME
           Value of the trace’s hostname environment constant. If this
           environment constant does not exist, or if its value is not a
           string, then this part is omitted.

       SESSION
           Tracing session name.

       PATH
           Other path elements up to the trace directory containing the
           metadata file from the LTTng relay daemon’s point of view. For
           example:

               kernel

               ust/uid/1000/64-bit

       For example:

           myhost/auto-20150909-223909/ust/uid/1000/64-bit

       A source.ctf.lttng-live never blocks: it asks the downstream
       component to try again later instead.

INITIALIZATION PARAMETERS         top

       url=URL (string, mandatory)
           The URL to use to connect to the LTTng relay daemon. The format
           of URL is:

               net[4]://RDHOST[:RDPORT]/host/TGTHOST/SESSION

           RDHOST
               LTTng relay daemon’s host name or IP address.

           RDPORT
               LTTng relay daemon’s listening port. If not specified, the
               default port, 5344, is used.

           TGTHOST
               Target’s host name or IP address.

           SESSION
               Name of the LTTng tracing session from which to receive data.

PORTS         top

   Output
       When you create the component, its only output port is no-stream.
       This port exists as long as there is no data stream output port. The
       port only asks the downstream component to try again later.

       For each received LTTng trace, the component creates one output port
       for each effective data stream. The name of a data stream output port
       is stream-ID, where ID is a unique LTTng live ID within the tracing
       session.

QUERY OBJECTS         top

   sessions
       You can query the sessions object to get a list of available LTTng
       live tracing sessions for a given LTTng relay daemon URL.

       Parameters:

       url (string, mandatory)
           The URL to use to connect to the LTTng relay daemon. The format
           of URL is:

               net[4]://RDHOST[:RDPORT]

           RDHOST
               LTTng relay daemon’s host name or IP address.

           RDPORT
               LTTng relay daemon’s listening port. If not specified, the
               default port, 5344, is used.

       Returned object (array of maps, one element for each tracing
       session):

       url (string)
           URL to use as the url parameter to connect to the same LTTng
           relay daemon and receive data from this tracing session.

       target-hostname (string)
           Hostname of the tracing session. This is not necessarily the
           relay daemon’s hostname.

       session-name (string)
           Tracing session’s name.

       timer-us (integer)
           Tracing session’s configured live timer (µs) (see
           lttng-create(1)).

       stream-count (integer)
           Current number of streams in this tracing sessions, including the
           metadata streams.

       client-count (integer)
           Current number of LTTng live clients connected to the relay
           daemon to receive data from this tracing session.

LIMITATIONS         top

       A source.ctf.lttng-live component only accepts a connection to one of
       its output port if all its output ports are connected to the input
       ports of the same downstream component.
