POSIX_TRACE_GET_ATTR(3P)   POSIX Programmer's Manual  POSIX_TRACE_GET_ATTR(3P)

PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the  corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
       posix_trace_get_attr,  posix_trace_get_status  -  retrieve  the   trace
       attributes or trace status (TRACING)
SYNOPSIS
       #include <trace.h>
       int posix_trace_get_attr(trace_id_t trid, trace_attr_t *attr);
       int posix_trace_get_status(trace_id_t trid,
              struct posix_trace_status_info *statusinfo);

DESCRIPTION
       The  posix_trace_get_attr()  function  shall copy the attributes of the
       active trace stream identified by trid into the object  pointed  to  by
       the  attr  argument.    If  the Trace Log option is supported, trid may
       represent a pre-recorded trace log.
       The posix_trace_get_status() function shall return,  in  the  structure
       pointed to by the statusinfo argument, the current trace status for the
       trace stream identified by  the  trid  argument.  These  status  values
       returned  in  the  structure  pointed  to by statusinfo shall have been
       appropriately read to ensure that the returned values  are  consistent.
       If  the Trace Log option is supported and the trid argument refers to a
       pre-recorded trace stream, the status shall be the status of  the  com-
       pleted trace stream.
       Each  time  the  posix_trace_get_status() function is used, the overrun
       status of the trace stream shall  be  reset  to  POSIX_TRACE_NO_OVERRUN
       immediately  after the call completes.  If the Trace Log option is sup-
       ported, the posix_trace_get_status() function shall behave the same  as
       when the option is not supported except for the following differences:
        * If  the  trid  argument refers to a trace stream with log, each time
          the posix_trace_get_status() function is used, the log overrun  sta-
          tus of the trace stream shall be reset to POSIX_TRACE_NO_OVERRUN and
          the flush_error status shall be reset to zero immediately after  the
          call completes.
        * If the trid argument refers to a pre-recorded trace stream, the sta-
          tus returned shall be the status of the completed trace  stream  and
          the status values of the trace stream shall not be reset.
RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful  completion,  these  functions shall return a value of
       zero. Otherwise, they shall return the corresponding error number.
       The posix_trace_get_attr() function stores the trace attributes in  the
       object pointed to by attr, if successful.
       The  posix_trace_get_status()  function  stores the trace status in the
       object pointed to by statusinfo, if successful.
ERRORS
       These functions shall fail if:
       EINVAL The trace stream argument trid does not correspond  to  a  valid
              active trace stream or a valid trace log.
