Hi everyone, My name is Philippe and I am an intern at EfficiOs for the summer. This email is to inform you about my summer project, ask for recommendations and your opinion. My project will consist of implementing a Babeltrace2 [1] plugin to be able to consume ftrace traces. The plugin will act as a source component in the babeltrace2 graph system. I was wondering if you can give me your first thoughts about this project, and any advice on where to find information to begin with, since I am new to ftrace. I have already read the doc [2][3][4], but I was wondering if there are more resources that could help me with my work. Also, I was wondering which version of libtraceevent I should use. The one in the kernel, or the one in the trace-cmd repo? My guess would be to take the one in trace-cmd since there are more recent commits, but I am asking just to make sure. The major focus of the project will be to match ftrace concepts to babeltrace 2 internal representation.
