Maybe you also need to check Linux Trace Toolkit Next Generation (ltt-ng). It's actually a tracing toolkit that delivers low latency tracing (according to the its website). Once it uses relayfs, but not sure what it uses today Anyway, do you need to track certain events and records i.e timestamp for quite long time e.g 1 week or more? That's really massive IMO. You really a fast logging and fast data transfer between kernel and user space and very fast data writer too. NB: Check ltt-ng carefully, IIRC it has its own logger too. -- regards, Mulyadi Santosa Freelance Linux trainer and consultant blog: the-hydra.blogspot.com training: mulyaditraining.blogspot.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
