[ltt-dev] Where I can get some more document recently

[Shouwei Li]

Hello, everybody:

I want to use lttng on debian 5.0 but have some question now.

1. From the compatibility list I see, my kernel should be use this(kernel
version is 2.6.26.1):

0.10.0-pre5
0.10.0-pre6
0.10.0-pre7
0.10.0-pre8
0.10.0-pre9
0.10.0-pre10
0.10.0-pre11
0.10.0-pre12
0.10.0-pre13
0.10.0-pre14
 0.10
0.11
0.12
0.13
0.14
0.15
 0.49
0.50
 obsolete
 0.5
 obsolete
 1.0
 2.6.26
2.6.26.1
 LTTng 0.10 support kernel 2.6.26 and adds markers support for userspace on
x86 32 and 64 bits. ltt-control 0.49 contains sample scripts to enable all
userspace markers visible in /proc at script execution.
ltt-control 0.50 fixes lttd mutex usage in when multithreaded (-N x).
lttv 0.10.0-pre14 fixes support of traces where CPU are hotplugged.
LTTng 0.14 includes a fix to the LTTng buffering scheme, found by running a
Spin model through Promela.
LTTng 0.15 has whitespace cleanups.

 x86, alpha, arm26, avr32, cris, frv, h8300, m32r, m68knommu, parisc, sh,
sh64, um, v850, xtensa.
arm, i686, ia64, m68k, mips, mipsel, x86_64, powerpc 405, powerpc64, s390,
sparc, sparc64.
then I choose this package: patch-2.6.26.1-0.15.tar.bz2. Then I re-compile
the kernel, now from the new kernel has been worked. but the lttng seems not
work well.

2. I can not compile the lttv-0.10.0-pre4-28112007, when run ./configure, I
got this error:
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.4.0... no
*** Could not run GLIB test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for
the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly
installed.
configure: error: glib is required in order to compile LinuxTraceToolkit -
download it from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk
But I have installed the libc, as follows:
[root][~]# dpkg -l | grep libc6
ii  libc6                             2.9-6                    GNU C
Library: Shared libraries
ii  libc6-dev                         2.9-6                    GNU C
Library: Development Libraries and Hea
ii  libc6-i686                        2.9-6                    GNU C
Library: Shared libraries [i686 optimi

3. I want to know if I could use the latest version? both lttng and lttv? In
other words, if the higher version is compatible with the lower version or
the specific kernel must correspond to the specific version.

4. Where I can get some examples which illustrate how to use these two
tools.

Thank your very much!
