NAME

----
|

tep_parse_event, tep_parse_format - Parse the event format information
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS

|
||||
*#include <event-parse.h>*
|
||||
|
||||
enum tep_errno *tep_parse_event*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_buf_, unsigned long _size_, const char pass:[*]_sys_);
|
||||
enum tep_errno *tep_parse_format*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, struct tep_event pass:[*]pass:[*]_eventp_, const char pass:[*]_buf_, unsigned long _size_, const char pass:[*]_sys_);

DESCRIPTION
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
The _tep_parse_event()_ function parses the event format and creates an event
|
||||
structure to quickly parse raw data for a given event. The _tep_ argument is
|
||||
the trace event parser context. The created event structure is stored in the
|
||||
_tep_ context. The _buf_ argument is a buffer with _size_, where the event
|
||||
format data is. The event format data can be taken from
|
||||
tracefs/events/.../.../format files. The _sys_ argument is the system of
|
||||
the event.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_parse_format()_ function does the same as _tep_parse_event()_. The only
|
||||
difference is in the extra _eventp_ argument, where the newly created event
|
||||
structure is returned.
|
||||
|
||||
RETURN VALUE
|
||||
------------
|
||||
Both _tep_parse_event()_ and _tep_parse_format()_ functions return 0 on success,
|
||||
or TEP_ERRNO__... in case of an error.
|
||||

||||
EXAMPLE
|
||||
-------
|
||||
[source,c]
|
||||
--
|
||||
#include <event-parse.h>
|
||||
...
|
||||
struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
|
||||
...
|
||||
char *buf;
|
||||
int size;
|
||||
struct tep_event *event = NULL;
|
||||
buf = read_file("/sys/kernel/tracing/events/ftrace/print/format", &size);
|
||||
if (tep_parse_event(tep, buf, size, "ftrace") != 0) {
|
||||
/* Failed to parse the ftrace print format */
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
if (tep_parse_format(tep, &event, buf, size, "ftrace") != 0) {
|
||||
/* Failed to parse the ftrace print format */
|
||||
}
