# Linux Tracepoints for Rust

- [eventheader](eventheader) provides an efficient high-level macro-based API
  for generating compile-time specified events using the `EventHeader`
  convention.  The events are written using the `user_events` system. This is
  intended for use by developers that want to log events from their code.  This
  crate also contains utility code shared with `eventheader_dynamic`.
- [eventheader_dynamic](eventheader_dynamic) provides a mid-level API
  for generating runtime-specified events using the `EventHeader`
  convention. The events are written using the `user_events` system.
  This is intended for use as an implementation layer for a higher-level
  dynamic-event API like OpenTelemetry.
- [eventheader_macros](eventheader_macros) provides proc macros for
  compile-time-defined events. The macros are exposed by the
  `eventheader` crate.
- [eventheader_types](eventheader_types) contains type definitions for the
  `EventHeader` encoding convention.
- [tracepoint](tracepoint) provides low-level building blocks for logging
  [Tracepoints](https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/trace/tracepoints.html)
  via the Linux [user_events](https://docs.kernel.org/trace/user_events.html)
  system.
- [tracepoint_decode](tracepoint_decode) provides support for decoding tracepoint
  event data, including support for both traditional (tracefs) event decoding and
  `EventHeader` decoding.
- [tracepoint_perf](tracepoint_perf) provides support for reading and writing the
  `perf.data` file format.
