Hello, Steven
Include header file again is a power trap full of imagination.
It is great... but maybe we can choose a stupid way if we have.
And, TRACE_SYSTEM must be same as header file name if we use
current way.
How about just
#define TRACE_EVENT(name, proto, args, fmt) \
DECLARE_TRACE(name, PARAMS(proto), PARAMS(args)) \
DEFINE_TRACE(name)
in tracepoint.h?
It means we always define both whether for tracepoint provider or for
tracepoint user.(and make compiler a bit slow)
Thanks
