Introduction

As part of Telemetry 2.0 , a marker event system has been added to reduce grepping of log files and to improve telemetry handling performance. Following are major aspects of the marker event system:

Configuration
The XConf/DCM response TelemetryProfile definition has been extended to indicate the source of a marker for report generation is the event system. When the TelemetryProfile "type" field equals "<event>" the T2 component will not include the marker in the log file grep process. If the "type" field is set to "<event>", then the "content" field is set to the name of the component.
When the T2 component converts a TelemetryProfile to a report profile at .BulkData.Profile.{i}. it creates a Parameter.{i}. entry for each marker . The Use field is set for marker event handling by the T2 component.
Example
Existing marker with log file as the source:

"telemetryProfile": [{ 
    "header": "SYS_SH_WIFI_restart", 
     "content": "WIFI_process is not running", 
     "type": "SelfHeal.txt.0", 
     "pollingFrequency": "0" 
 }, 

Updated marker with event feed as the source; "type" and "content" field are changed:

"telemetryProfile": [{ 
  "header": "SYS_SH_WIFI_restart", 
   "content": ""com.cisco.spvtg.ccsp.wifiagent"", 
   "type": "<event>", 
   "pollingFrequency": "0" 
}, 

Processing
A shared library is used by components to send targeted marker occurrences through an event feed to the T2 component.Components using the shared library shall conditionally compile it in via #if defined(ENABLE_FEATURE_TELEMETRY2_0) in order to support platform-specific compilation.When the T2 component receives a marker event it processes the marker name and value according to the Use definition in the report profile. The T2 component will store absolute as received, accumulate, or aggregate values. Marker events are processed per report profile.
When a report is generated markers that were processed from the event feed are included in the report as specified by the report profile.
