   Is this a statement of intent?  LTTng 2.3.0's list command identifies 
user-space events by trace provider name, event name, and process ID, but not 
by user ID (in fact it doesn't even yet filter the kernel events out when one 
asks for 'list -u session'; see bug #654).  And there is as yet no way to 
filter the 'lttng list' output by user ID (an optional argument for the -u 
option could do the trick).
   Of course, listing available tracepoints is automatically per-user when 
using a local session daemon.  But if you're a member of the 'tracing' group, 
you'll deal exclusively with the root daemon and won't have that choice.

   How about this?

Each user-space application instrumented with lttng-ust(3) will automatically
register with the root session daemon and its user session daemon. This allows
each daemon to list the available traceable applications and tracepoints at
any given moment (See the \fBlist\fP command).

(There is no need to explain further the diff between the two daemons since the 
preceding paragraph in the man page already talks about co-existing session 
daemons)
