lttng-stop - Stop an LTTng recording session

       This program is part of the LTTng-tools project.

       The lttngstop command stops a recording session, that is, it deactivates the LTTng tracers for:

       With the SESSION argument
           The recording session named SESSION.

       Without the SESSION argument
           The current recording session (see lttng-concepts(7) to learn more about the current recording
           session).

       See lttng-concepts(7) to learn more about recording sessions.

       The selected recording session must be active (started; see lttng-start(1)). A recording session is
       inactive on creation (see lttng-create(1)).

       A stop-session trigger action can also stop a recording session (see lttng-add-trigger(1)).

       Start an inactive recording session with the lttng-start(1) command.

       By default, the stop command ensures that the trace data of the selected recording session is valid
       before it exits. Make the command exit immediately with the --no-wait option. In this case, however, the
       traces(s) might not be valid when the command exits, and there’s no way to know when it/they becomes
       valid.

       If LTTng archived the current trace chunk (see lttng-rotate(1) and lttng-enable-rotation(1)) of the
       selected recording session at least once during its lifetime, the stop command renames the current trace
       chunk subdirectory and prints the renamed path. Although it’s safe to read the content of this renamed
       subdirectory while the recording session remains inactive, it’s NOT a trace chunk archive: you need to
       destroy the recording session with lttng-destroy(1) or perform a rotation with lttng-rotate(1) to archive
       it.

       See the “EXAMPLES” section below for usage examples.

LTTNG_ABORT_ON_ERROR
           Set to 1 to abort the process after the first error is encountered.

       LTTNG_HOME
           Path to the LTTng home directory.

           Defaults to $HOME.

           Useful when the Unix user running the commands has a non-writable home directory.

       LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH
           Absolute path to the manual pager to use to read the LTTng command-line help (with lttng-help(1) or
           with the --help option) instead of /usr/bin/man.

       LTTNG_SESSION_CONFIG_XSD_PATH
           Path to the directory containing the session.xsd recording session configuration XML schema.

       LTTNG_SESSIOND_PATH
           Absolute path to the LTTng session daemon binary (see lttng-sessiond(8)) to spawn from the lttng-create(1) command.

           The --sessiond-path general option overrides this environment variable.

Example1.Stopthecurrentrecordingsession.

               $ lttng stop

       Example2.Stopaspecificrecordingsession.

               $ lttng stop my-session

       Example3.Stopthecurrentrecordingsessionwithoutwaitingforcompletion.

           See the --no-wait option.

               $ lttng stop --no-wait

0
           Success

       1
           Command error

       2
           Undefined command

       3
           Fatal error

       4
           Command warning (something went wrong during the command)

$LTTNG_HOME/.lttngrc
           Unix user’s LTTng runtime configuration.

           This is where LTTng stores the name of the Unix user’s current recording session between executions
           of lttng(1).  lttng-create(1) and lttng-set-session(1) set the current recording session.

       $LTTNG_HOME/lttng-traces
           Default output directory of LTTng traces in local and snapshot modes.

           Override this path with the --output option of the lttng-create(1) command.

       $LTTNG_HOME/.lttng
           Unix user’s LTTng runtime and configuration directory.

       $LTTNG_HOME/.lttng/sessions
           Default directory containing the Unix user’s saved recording session configurations (see lttng-save(1) and lttng-load(1)).

       /etc/lttng/sessions
           Directory containing the system-wide saved recording session configurations (see lttng-save(1) and
           lttng-load(1)).

       Note$LTTNG_HOME defaults to the value of the HOME environment variable.

       lttng-stop - Stop an LTTng recording session

       See lttng(1) for GENERALOPTIONS.

       -n, --no-wait
           Do NOT ensure that the trace data of the selected recording session is valid before exiting.

   Programinformation-h, --help
           Show help.

           This option attempts to launch /usr/bin/man to view this manual page. Override the manual pager path
           with the LTTNG_MAN_BIN_PATH environment variable.

       --list-options
           List available command options and quit.

       Special thanks to Michel Dagenais and the DORSAL laboratory <http://www.dorsal.polymtl.ca/> at École
       Polytechnique de Montréal for the LTTng journey.

       Also thanks to the Ericsson teams working on tracing which helped us greatly with detailed bug reports
       and unusual test cases.
