|  |  | 
|  | ``[enable=]PATTERN`` | 
|  |  | 
|  | Immediately enable events matching *PATTERN* | 
|  | (either event name or a globbing pattern).  This option is only | 
|  | available if QEMU has been compiled with the ``simple``, ``log`` | 
|  | or ``ftrace`` tracing backend.  To specify multiple events or patterns, | 
|  | specify the :option:`-trace` option multiple times. | 
|  |  | 
|  | Use :option:`-trace help` to print a list of names of trace points. | 
|  |  | 
|  | ``events=FILE`` | 
|  |  | 
|  | Immediately enable events listed in *FILE*. | 
|  | The file must contain one event name (as listed in the ``trace-events-all`` | 
|  | file) per line; globbing patterns are accepted too.  This option is only | 
|  | available if QEMU has been compiled with the ``simple``, ``log`` or | 
|  | ``ftrace`` tracing backend. | 
|  |  | 
|  | ``file=FILE`` | 
|  |  | 
|  | Log output traces to *FILE*. | 
|  | This option is only available if QEMU has been compiled with | 
|  | the ``simple`` tracing backend. |
