[ltt-dev] LTTng internals document

[Umashankar V.K.]

Hi,

I  can see that the ( major , minor ) version  in  ltt-core.c  is   0,7.
Is this what you are referring to ?

I  have seen the  compatibility list.   I am using
ltt-control-0.50-17072008.

Also,  I want to know  why do  you  package   the 3 files  ( ltt-control.c
ltt-control.h  ltt-statedump.c )
separately  as  ltt-modules  in the  repository  ?

I  greped  for   /proc  APIs  in  LTT source files,  but could not find any
.  Anyway ,  I am reading the code now.

The  version of LTT  I am  using came  pre-included with vendor-supplied
kernel code.

                                    shankar
