(** * Events and traces *)
(** The observable behaviour of programs is stated in terms of input/output events, which represent the actions of the program that the external world can observe.  CompCert leaves much flexibility as to the exact content of events: the only requirement is that they do not expose memory states nor pointer values (other than pointers to global variables), because these are not preserved literally during compilation.  For concreteness, we use the following type for events.  Each event represents either:  - A system call (e.g. an input/output operation), recording the name of the system call, its parameters, and its result.  - A volatile load from a global memory location, recording the chunk and address being read and the value just read.  - A volatile store to a global memory location, recording the chunk and address being written and the value stored there.  - An annotation, recording the text of the annotation and the values of the arguments.  The values attached to these events are of the following form. As mentioned above, we do not expose pointer values directly. Pointers relative to a global variable are shown with the name of the variable instead of the block identifier. *)
