asprintf is not available for all hosts. g_strdup_printf is
more portable and simplifies the code because if does not
need error handling.
The static variable does not need an explicit assignment to be NULL.

Existing simpletrace backend allows to trace at max 6 args and does not
support strings. This newer tracelog format gets rid of fixed size records
and therefore allows to trace variable number of args including strings.
Sample trace with strings:
v9fs_version 0.000 tag=0xffff id=0x64 msize=0x2000 version=9P2000.L
v9fs_version_return 6.705 tag=0xffff id=0x64 msize=0x2000 version=9P2000.L

Going forward with simpletrace v2 variable size trace records, we cannot
have a generic function to print trace event info and therefore this
interface becomes invalid.
As per Stefan Hajnoczi:
"This command is only available from the human monitor. It's not very
useful because it historically hasn't been able to pretty-print events
or show them in the right order (we use a ringbuffer but it prints
them out from index 0).
Therefore, I don't think we're under any obligation to keep this
command around. No one has complained about it's limitations - I
think this is a sign that no one has used it. I'd be okay with a
patch that removes it."

that is not correct) and onwards g_thread_init is deprecated and calling
it is not required:
http://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Deprecated-Thread-APIs.html#g-thread-init
g_thread_init has been deprecated since version 2.32 and should not be
used in newly-written code. This function is no longer necessary. The
GLib threading system is automatically initialized at the start of your
program.

Trace events outside the global mutex cannot be used with the simple
trace backend since it is not thread-safe. There is no check to prevent
them being enabled so people sometimes learn this the hard way.
This patch restructures the simple trace backend with a ring buffer
suitable for multiple concurrent writers. A writeout thread empties the
trace buffer when threshold fill levels are reached. Should the
writeout thread be unable to keep up with trace generation, records will
simply be dropped.
Each time events are dropped a special record is written to the trace
file indicating how many events were dropped. The event ID is
0xfffffffffffffffe and its signature is dropped(uint32_t count).

Move timer init functions to a new file, qemu-timer-common.c. Make other
critical timer functions inlined to preserve performance in
qemu-timer.c, also move muldiv64() (used by the inline functions)
to qemu-timer.h.
Adjust block/raw-posix.c and simpletrace.c to use get_clock() directly.
Remove a similar/duplicate definition in qemu-tool.c.
Adjust hw/omap_clk.c to include qemu-timer.h because muldiv64() is used
there.
After this change, tracing can be used also for user code and
simpletrace on Win32.

This patch adds the trace-file command:
trace-file [on|off|flush]
Open, close, or flush the trace file. If no argument is given,
the status of the trace file is displayed.
The trace file is turned on by default but is only written out when the
trace buffer becomes full. The flush operation can be used to force
write out at any time.
Turning off the trace file does not change the state of trace events;
tracing will continue to the trace buffer. When the trace file is off,
use "info trace" to display the contents of the trace buffer in memory.

trace: Add options to specify trace file name at startup and runtime
This patch adds an optional command line switch '-trace' to specify the
filename to write traces to, when qemu starts.
Eg, If compiled with the 'simple' trace backend,
[temp@system]$ qemu -trace FILENAME IMAGE
Allows the binary traces to be written to FILENAME instead of the option
set at config-time.
Also, this adds monitor sub-command 'set' to trace-file commands to
dynamically change trace log file at runtime.
Eg,
(qemu)trace-file set FILENAME
This allows one to set trace outputs to FILENAME from the default
specified at startup.

Allow users to specify a file for trace-outputs at configuration.
Also, allow trace files to be annotated by <pid> so each qemu instance has
unique traces.
The trace file name can be passed as a config option:
--trace-file=/path/to/file
(Default: trace )
At runtime, the pid of the qemu process is appended to the filename so
that mutiple qemu instances do not have overlapping logs.
Eg : trace-1234 for qemu launched with pid 1234.
I have yet to test this on windows. getpid() is used at many places
in code(including vnc.c), so I'm hoping this would be okay too.

This patch adds support for dynamically enabling/disabling of trace events.
This is done by internally maintaining each trace event's state, and
permitting logging of data from a trace event only if it is in an
'active' state.
Monitor commands added :
1) info trace-events : to view all available trace events and
their state.
2) trace-event NAME on|off : to enable/disable data logging from a
given trace event.
Eg, trace-event paio_submit off
disables logging of data when
paio_submit is hit.
By default, all trace-events are disabled. One can enable desired trace-events
via the monitor.
