The PEVENT_PLUGIN_UNLOADER function might need some cleanup using pevent
like unregister some handlers. So pass pevent as argument.

Backporting plugin support for traceevent lib.
Backported from Steven Rostedt's trace-cmd repo (HEAD 0f2c2fb):
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/trace-cmd.git
It's now possible to use following interface to load plugins
(shared objects) to enhance pevent object functionality.
The plugin interface/hooks are as follows:
(taken from event-parse.h comments)
- 'pevent_plugin_loader' (required)
The function name to initialized the plugin.
int pevent_plugin_loader(struct pevent *pevent)
- 'pevent_plugin_unloader' (optional)
The function called just before unloading
int pevent_plugin_unloader(void)
- 'pevent_plugin_options' (optional)
Plugin options that can be set before loading
struct plugin_option pevent_plugin_options[] = {
{
.name = "option-name",
.plugin_alias = "overide-file-name", (optional)
.description = "description of option to show users",
},
{
.name = NULL,
},
};
Array must end with .name = NULL;
The plugin_alias (below) can be used to give a shorter
name to access the variable. Useful if a plugin handles
more than one event.
NOTE options support is not backported yet.
- 'pevent_plugin_alias' (optional)
The name to use for finding options (uses filename if not defined)
New traceevent functions are added to search and load
available plugins:
struct plugin_list*
traceevent_load_plugins(struct pevent *pevent)
- loads plusing for 'struct pevent' object and returns
loaded plugins list
void traceevent_unload_plugins(struct plugin_list *plugin_list);
- unload plugin list
