       The  posix_trace_start()  and  posix_trace_stop() functions, respectively, shall start and stop the trace
       stream identified by the argument trid.

       The effect of calling the posix_trace_start() function shall be recorded  in  the  trace  stream  as  the
       POSIX_TRACE_START system trace event and the status of the trace stream shall become POSIX_TRACE_RUNNING.
       If the trace stream is in progress when this function is called, the POSIX_TRACE_START system trace event
       shall  not  be  recorded  and  the  trace  stream shall continue to run. If the trace stream is full, the
       POSIX_TRACE_START system trace event shall not be recorded and the status of the trace stream  shall  not
       be changed.

       The  effect  of  calling  the  posix_trace_stop()  function  shall be recorded in the trace stream as the
       POSIX_TRACE_STOP  system  trace   event   and   the   status   of   the   trace   stream   shall   become
       POSIX_TRACE_SUSPENDED.    If   the   trace  stream  is  suspended  when  this  function  is  called,  the
       POSIX_TRACE_STOP system trace event shall not be recorded and the trace stream shall remain suspended. If
       the trace stream is full, the POSIX_TRACE_STOP system trace event shall not be recorded and the status of
       the trace stream shall not be changed.

       These functions shall fail if:

       EINVAL The  value  of  the  argument trid does not correspond to an active trace stream and thus no trace
              stream was started or stopped.

       EINTR  The operation was interrupted by a signal and thus the trace stream was not necessarily started or
              stopped.

       Thefollowingsectionsareinformative.

       None.

       The posix_trace_start() and posix_trace_stop() functions may be removed in a future version.

       posix_trace_start, posix_trace_stop — trace start and stop (TRACING)

       may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface
       may not be implemented on Linux.

       None.

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