We can pass trace trace options with the -trace command line
argument.
Tracing might be useful when running qtests. To avoid to have
to modify the tests and recompile, add the possibility to pass
trace options via the shell environment.
We add:
- QEMU_TRACE_EVENTS: List of events to enable (coma separated)
- QEMU_TRACE_EVENTFILE: File with list of events to enable
- QEMU_TRACE_LOGFILE: File to log the trace events.
Example of use:
$ QEMU_TRACE_EVENTS=pl011\* make check-qtest-arm
TEST check-qtest-arm: tests/boot-serial-test
