Quick comment. I think the above should be done by trace-cmd. At least
have options for it like:

trace-cmd virt-server -d /tmp/trace-cmd/virt/domain -m 710 -g qemu

Perhaps default some of those, and have trace-cmd print out:

  Process Directory:     /tmp/trace-cmd/virt/domain
  Directory permission:  0710
  Group:                 qemu

OK, now to look at the actual code ;-)
