One Line Summary
Adding a trace-cmd server for guests and remote machines
Abstract
It’s been on my todo list for some time, and there’s been a little work done already. But I would like to have the ability to create a server daemon that runs on a remote host or a guest. Then you could have the local host connect to that daemon to start tracing.
The main issue I have is coming up with a decent protocol for this approach. We need something that is robust enough for future changes, and my worry is also about security. As it is a means to start root only services on a machine. We need to implement protection against attacks.
