What do you mean by "trace"?

Have you looked at gdb tracepoints?  Is this close to what
you are looking for?  See the url:

If you are talking about tracepoints (see above), and if
you can make your trace buffer talk to gdb according to the
published API, you can use gdb to display your trace results.

If not, you need to tell us more about what you're trying to do.
