OK, let me check that. Even if the old server will receive "V2", the
server will send port numbers instead of "V2" due to the old protocol.
In that time, the new client will disconnect from the old server and
the restarts with the old protocol. Is it OK?

Yep, that's exactly what I meant ;-)

I tried to implement the feature, but I found that sending just "V2"
from the new client is inappropriate. This is because the old server
doesn't respond to the client before receiving cpu numbers, page size,
and options. So, when the new client sends the first message, it should
send "V2\0<MAGIC_NUMBER>\00\0", I think. If so, the old server will
understand the message as cpus=0, pagesize=<MAGIC_NUMBER>, options=0,
and then it will send port numbers(actually \0). Note if <MAGIC_NUMBER>
is zero, the old server will die.

Can I implement the first message of the new client as
"V2\0<MAGIC_NUMBER>\00\0"?


If it works for both old and new server with old and new client (and
all combinations) I'm fine with it.

OK, I'll submit trace-cmd patches as V2 in a few days.
