Detailed Description
     RTE Tracepoint API

     This file provides the tracepoint API to RTE applications.

     Warning
	 EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

     Definition in file rte_trace_point.h.

Macro Definition Documentation
   #define RTE_TRACE_POINT_ARGS
     Macro to define the tracepoint arguments in RTE_TRACE_POINT macro.

     See also
	 RTE_TRACE_POINT, RTE_TRACE_POINT_FP

     Definition at line 47 of file rte_trace_point.h.

   #define RTE_TRACE_POINT(tp, args,  ...)	 __RTE_TRACE_POINT(generic,  tp,
     args, __VA_ARGS__)
     Create a tracepoint.

     A tracepoint is defined by specifying:

     * its  input  arguments: they are the C function style parameters to define
       the arguments of tracepoint function. These input arguments are	embedded
       using the RTE_TRACE_POINT_ARGS macro.

     * its  output  event fields: they are the sources of event fields that form
       the payload of any event that the execution of the tracepoint macro emits
       for    this    particular    tracepoint.     The     application     uses
       rte_trace_point_emit_* macros to emit the output event fields.

     Parameters
	 tp Tracepoint object. Before using the tracepoint, an application needs
	 to define the tracepoint using RTE_TRACE_POINT_REGISTER macro.
	 args C function style input arguments to define the arguments to trace-
	 point function.
	 ...  Define  the  payload of trace function. The payload will be formed
	 using rte_trace_point_emit_* macros. Use ';' delimiter between two pay-
	 loads.

     See also
	 RTE_TRACE_POINT_ARGS, RTE_TRACE_POINT_REGISTER, rte_trace_point_emit_*

     Definition at line 85 of file rte_trace_point.h.

   #define RTE_TRACE_POINT_FP(tp, args,  ...)	      __RTE_TRACE_POINT(fp,  tp,
     args, __VA_ARGS__)
     Create a tracepoint for fast path.

     Similar  to  RTE_TRACE_POINT, except that it is removed at compilation time
     unless the RTE_ENABLE_TRACE_FP configuration parameter is set.

     Parameters
	 tp Tracepoint object. Before using the tracepoint, an application needs
	 to define the tracepoint using RTE_TRACE_POINT_REGISTER macro.
	 args C function style input arguments to define the arguments to trace-
	 point. function.
	 ... Define the payload of trace function. The payload	will  be  formed
	 using rte_trace_point_emit_* macros, Use ';' delimiter between two pay-
	 loads.

	 RTE_TRACE_POINT

     Definition at line 106 of file rte_trace_point.h.

   #define RTE_TRACE_POINT_REGISTER(trace, name)
     Register a tracepoint.

     Parameters
	 trace The tracepoint object created using RTE_TRACE_POINT_REGISTER.
	 name The name of the tracepoint object.

     Returns

	 * 0: Successfully registered the tracepoint.

	 * <0: Failure to register the tracepoint.
