I found that this lib needs to be an .so to work with trace-cmd's plugins.


And not just trace-cmd. I want to get those plugins to also work with
perf. That is, have the kvm plugin (et. al.) make it so that perf does
not need to rely only on the TP_printk() in the format file.

But that said, it is trivial to make this into a .so. Just having a
separate library would be a huge first step.

Right, I meant to get trace-cmd's plugins to work with perf.

I have a patch that applies to your set from last August for that purpose; it applies to Frederic's version just working on a header file name collision. I've been using the plugins-modified perf specifically for kvm events.
