That's looks good.
By the past, I also suggested Steven to automatically reset the traces
buffer each time a tracer is started, that
would factor out the code a bit more. I don't think one tracer would
avoid to reset the buffer once it is started, and
I don't think it is needed to reset twice on tracer switching: on stop
of the old tracer and on start on the new. Only
on start should be enough.
