Tried that -- and failed miserably.

Something in the trace format appears to have changed. When using
trace-cmd report, I first get a parser warning:

trace-cmd: No such file or directory
  bad op token {
  failed to read event print fmt for kvm_emulate_insn
version = 6
CPU 0 is empty
cpus=4

The ENOENT errno doesn't correspond to that error, strace showed that
occuring much earlier in something unrelated. The warning is generated by:

The decoding that follows is complete garbage, which is why I think it's
of no use to you (i.e. the insn= part just displays some random
undefined memory from the looks).

Therefore, I've uploaded the compressed trace.dat file, so you can maybe
have a look why the "report" tool barfs and interpret it correctly. I
can't figure it out. The trace is here:

http://spornkuller.de/trace.dat.bz2

The trace was generated with a buffer of 40000 (double of what was given
in the example), when it was lower I had overruns. This way I had none.
Also, to simulate a single cpu, I've run qemu with "-smp 1", hopefully
that's correct.

Should I also generate a trace there and look for the corresponding
opcodes that fail on my main machine?
