Can we use something like qemu_hexdump() here?

Can we use a single tracepoint here instead?

Is this possible that the packet from secondary has not been arrived on
time? If yes, do we still need to notify the checkpoint here?

Yes,the packet of secondary may not arrived.
we will hold primary packet to next periodic checkpoint
to flush it. and more, I consider to set a timer
to flush timeout(200ms???) packet like Dave's branch.
