Description

By definition, /var/run stores files describing system since boot:

http://www.pathname.com/fhs/2.2/fhs-5.13.html

So I don't see how storing the system session files there help us achieving boot time auto load ?

Storing those files under /root/.lttng might be more expected than /var/run (at least it is not cleared at each boot). Having the configuration files under /etc/lttng would be expected, but I cannot find any reference to this path in the manpage.
