Description

$ sudo -H lttng create sss
$ sudo -H lttng enable-channel k0 -k
Kernel channel k0 enabled for session sss
$ sudo -H lttng enable-channel k1 -k --subbuf-size 4096
Kernel channel k1 enabled for session sss
$ sudo -H lttng start
Tracing started for session sss
$ sudo -H lttng stop
Waiting for data availability
Tracing stopped for session sss
$ sudo -H lttng enable-channel k2 -k --subbuf-size 4096
PERROR [20531/20631]: ioctl kernel create channel: Invalid argument (in kernel_create_channel() at kernel.c:144)
Error: Channel k2: Kernel create channel failed (session sss)
Warning: Some command(s) went wrong
$ sudo -H lttng enable-channel k2 -k
PERROR [20531/20631]: ioctl kernel create channel: Invalid argument (in kernel_create_channel() at kernel.c:144)
Error: Channel k2: Kernel create channel failed (session sss)
Warning: Some command(s) went wrong

This inability to enable new channels (for a suspended trace) seems to affect only the kernel domain (in the user-space domain, new channels may be enabled at any time, even while the trace is running). If this is a feature, it ought to be mentioned in the man pages.

It's a limitation right now yes only for the lttng-modules.

I'll document that in the man page before any release.
