attributes or trace status (TRACING)

SYNOPSIS
       #include <trace.h>

       int posix_trace_get_attr(trace_id_t trid, trace_attr_t *attr);
       int posix_trace_get_status(trace_id_t trid,
              struct posix_trace_status_info *statusinfo);


DESCRIPTION
       The posix_trace_get_attr() function shall copy the  attributes  of  the
       active  trace  stream  identified by trid into the object pointed to by
       the attr argument.   If the Trace Log option  is  supported,  trid  may
       represent a pre-recorded trace log.

       The  posix_trace_get_status()  function  shall return, in the structure
       pointed to by the statusinfo argument, the current trace status for the
       trace  stream  identified  by  the  trid  argument. These status values
       returned in the structure pointed to  by  statusinfo  shall  have  been
       appropriately  read  to ensure that the returned values are consistent.
        If the Trace Log option is supported and the trid argument refers to a
       pre-recorded  trace  stream, the status shall be the status of the com-
       pleted trace stream.

       Each time the posix_trace_get_status() function is  used,  the  overrun
       status  of  the  trace  stream shall be reset to POSIX_TRACE_NO_OVERRUN
       immediately after the call completes.    If the  Trace  Log  option  is
       supported,  the posix_trace_get_status() function shall behave the same
       as when the option is not supported except for  the  following  differ-
       ences:

        * If  the  trid  argument refers to a trace stream with log, each time
          the posix_trace_get_status() function is used, the log overrun  sta-
          tus of the trace stream shall be reset to POSIX_TRACE_NO_OVERRUN and
          the flush_error status shall be reset to zero immediately after  the
          call completes.

        * If the trid argument refers to a pre-recorded trace stream, the sta-
          tus returned shall be the status of the completed trace  stream  and
          the status values of the trace stream shall not be reset.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful  completion,  these  functions shall return a value of
       zero. Otherwise, they shall return the corresponding error number.

       The posix_trace_get_attr() function stores the trace attributes in  the
       object pointed to by attr, if successful.

       The  posix_trace_get_status()  function  stores the trace status in the
       object pointed to by statusinfo, if successful.

ERRORS
       These functions shall fail if:

RATIONALE
       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
