14# @TraceEventState:
15#
16# State of a tracing event.
17#
18# @unavailable: The event is statically disabled.
19#
20# @disabled: The event is dynamically disabled.
21#
22# @enabled: The event is dynamically enabled.

30# @TraceEventInfo:
31#
32# Information of a tracing event.
33#
34# @name: Event name.
35# @state: Tracing state.
36# @vcpu: Whether this is a per-vCPU event (since 2.7).
37#
38# An event is per-vCPU if it has the "vcpu" property in the "trace-events"
39# files.
40#
41# Since: 2.2

47# @trace-event-get-state:
48#
49# Query the state of events.
50#
51# @name: Event name pattern (case-sensitive glob).
52# @vcpu: The vCPU to query (any by default; since 2.7).
53#
54# Returns: a list of @TraceEventInfo for the matching events
55#
56#          An event is returned if:
57#
58#          - its name matches the @name pattern, and
59#          - if @vcpu is given, the event has the "vcpu" property.
60#
61#          Therefore, if @vcpu is given, the operation will only match per-vCPU events,
62#          returning their state on the specified vCPU. Special case: if @name is an
63#          exact match, @vcpu is given and the event does not have the "vcpu" property,
64#          an error is returned.

84# @name: Event name pattern (case-sensitive glob).
85# @enable: Whether to enable tracing.
86# @ignore-unavailable: Do not match unavailable events with @name.
87# @vcpu: The vCPU to act upon (all by default; since 2.7).
88#
89# An event's state is modified if:
90# - its name matches the @name pattern, and
91# - if @vcpu is given, the event has the "vcpu" property.
92#
93# Therefore, if @vcpu is given, the operation will only match per-vCPU events,
94# setting their state on the specified vCPU. Special case: if @name is an exact
95# match, @vcpu is given and the event does not have the "vcpu" property, an
