   You could trace the user events per process ID.  Each process will then, 
during its existence, create its own mini-trace within the trace folder 
hierarchy.  You can use babeltrace to merge all processes or to extract just 
one process's trace.  Example:

$ lttng create mysession
$ lttng enable-channel mychannel --userspace --buffers-pid
$ lttng enable-event --channel mychannel --userspace --all
$ lttng start
> now run app_1, app_2

   Filters are nice but are fairly expensive CPU-wise.  With per-process 
tracing, you can do all the requisite filtering after the fact.
