The native trace stream in HEX currently looks like this

0400 0000 ed65 7e3d 0d00 010a 6231 5443
5e00 0000 5e00 0000 5e00 0000 0010 0000
0000 0000 0100 0000 0000 0000 0400 0000
61a3 813d 0000 0000 0d00 010a 5e00 0000
5e00 0000 1100 0000 0100 0000 0000 0000
0400 0000 3bb2 843d da0e 0300 0d00 010a

Above one is not CTF stream because it does not have CTF magic number

So it should look like this in HEX

c11f fcc1 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
0400 0000 ed65 7e3d 0d00 010a 6231 5443
5e00 0000 5e00 0000 5e00 0000 0010 0000
0000 0000 0100 0000 0000 0000 0400 0000
61a3 813d 0000 0000 0d00 010a 5e00 0000
5e00 0000 1100 0000 0100 0000 0000 0000
0400 0000 3bb2 843d da0e 0300 0d00 010a

All the example on [1] have this thing in common. I modified the stream
file and added magic number(0xc11fcc1) in it. Then, I parsed both stream
file and metadata. Babeltrace was able to read the stream file.
