Hi David,
If you specifically want to trace the scheduling of the threads of your
app, you don't need custom tracepoints.
Enabling the sched_switch kernel event will give you both of cpu id and
thread id. Look at the cpu_id and next_tid fields.

You can enable the sched_switch event using : lttng enable-event -k
sched_switch

Cheers,
Francis
