+  The following tracers will only run in binaries built in DEBUG mode. This is
+  accomplished by invoking `CONFIG=dbg make <target>`
+  - metadata - tracks creation and mutation of metadata
+  - closure - tracks closure creation, scheduling, and completion
+  - pending_tags - traces still-in-progress tags on completion queues
+  - polling - traces the selected polling engine
+  - queue_refcount

   'all' can additionally be used to turn all traces on.
   Individual traces can be disabled by prefixing them with '-'.
