Yes.

No, consumers are based on the bitness thus if 32-bit app, 64-bit app
and the kernel, you'll have two UST consumers and one kernel consumer.

The JUL domain means that you can enable Logger name in a Java
application through a Java Agent that uses a JNI library to use
lttng-ust which will register to the session daemon and have a full UST
setup process.

The Logger's data is mapped to a UST generic tracepoint (can be
expanded) so what the consumer do is the same as a UST domain.

Hope that clarifies.

Cheers!
