This would be fantastic. The support for detailed analysis of trace data in
RTEMS is growing. Covoar has had a lot of work done on it this year. An
efficient cross-host way to get good trace data will improve the quality of 
RTEMS.

I, like Sebastian, use the SIS for my development work.

The covoar tool currently support the couverture qemu trace format. I am not
sure if it is something Adacore invented.

The covoar tool is run from within the rtems-test tool when the BSP supports
coverage. It has the ability to support a number of formats so we can add what
is created. I suggest any format that is compact and can be parsed in a single
pass should be fine.

The ability to control the trace file name would be nice. The rtems-test tool
runs the sis simulator in parallel on the available cores and we now have a
number of executables in the same directory.
