Re: [lttng-dev] [lttng-relayd] is there existing cases for relayd to stream over Android usb based adb?

The "reverse order" you describe is the order you need. What you are
missing is to run lttng-relayd on the host and to forward both ports
5342 *and* 5343. You will also need to either override the target URLs
for the live control and data ports to prevent sessiond from auto-spawning
a relayd, or forward the live viewer port as well through adb (5344).

Overall:

* First on the Host:

lttng-relayd
adb reverse tcp:5342 tcp:5342  # control port
adb reverse tcp:5343 tcp:5343  # data port
adb reverse tcp:5344 tcp:5344  # live viewer port

* Then on the Android Device:

lttng-sessiond -d --no-kernel
lttng create my-live-session --live --ctrl-url=tcp://localhost:5342 --data-url=tcp://localhost:5343
lttng enable-event -u <my customized event>
lttng start

The reason why the relayd auto-spawn needs to be prevented is because
the "lttng create" command line attempts to connect to the localhost relayd
as a viewer (default port tcp 5344). So if you don't forward this
port as well through adb, the sessiond will always try to auto-spawn
a relayd which conflicts with your forwarded ports on the Android
device.

Technically either forwarding port 5344 or specifying control/data
URL override is sufficient to prevent the relayd auto-spawn, but
I'd recommend doing both if it is possible.

Thanks,

Mathieu
