Afaiu, the behavior before this series was the same.
An application calling rte_trace_save() would always save to a single directory.
One thing that changed though is that the directory is timestamped
with the time of the first call to rte_trace_save.
Before the seriesn the timestamp was based on the time when the trace
subsystem was initialised.


We can go with what you describe (which makes sense to me).
But I'd like to get a ack from traces maintainers before looking into it.
