Thanks for looking into this.
Some questions:
Do we need to prefix traces with vhost_virtio_?
How about a trace for enabling/disabling interrupts?
Trace for a suppressed interrupt?
I think we need a vq # not pointer.
Also need some id for when there are many guests.
Use the vhost thread name (includes owner pid)? It's pid? Both?
Also, traces do add very small overhead when compiled but not
enabled mainly due to increasing register pressure.
Need to test to make sure perf is not hurt.
Some traces are just for debugging so build them on
debug kernel only?
Further, there are many events some are rare
some are common. I think we need some naming scheme
so that really useful and low overhead stuff is easier
to enable ignoring the rarely usefu;/higher overhead traces.
