docs/devel/tracing.txt explains "since many source files include
trace.h, [the generated trace.h use] a minimum of types and other
header files included to keep the namespace clean and compile times
and dependencies down."
Commit 4815185902 "trace: Add per-vCPU tracing states for events with
the 'vcpu' property" made them all include qom/cpu.h via
control-internal.h. qom/cpu.h in turn includes about thirty headers.
Ouch.
Per-vCPU tracing is currently not supported in sub-directories'
trace-events. In other words, qom/cpu.h can only be used in
trace-root.h, not in any trace.h.
Split trace/control-vcpu.h off trace/control.h and
trace/control-internal.h. Have the generated trace.h include
trace/control.h (which no longer includes qom/cpu.h), and trace-root.h
include trace/control-vcpu.h (which includes it).
The resulting improvement is a bit disappointing: in my "build
everything" tree, some 1100 out of 6600 objects (not counting tests
and objects that don't depend on qemu/osdep.h) depend on a trace.h,
and about 600 of them no longer depend on qom/cpu.h. But more than
1300 others depend on trace-root.h. More work is clearly needed.
Left for another day.
