+NAME

+tep_register_comm, tep_override_comm, tep_is_pid_registered,
+tep_data_comm_from_pid, tep_data_pid_from_comm, tep_cmdline_pid -
+Manage pid to process name mappings.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+int *tep_register_comm*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_comm_, int _pid_);
+int *tep_override_comm*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_comm_, int _pid_);
+bool *tep_is_pid_registered*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, int _pid_);
+const char pass:[*]*tep_data_comm_from_pid*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_pevent_, int _pid_);
+struct cmdline pass:[*]*tep_data_pid_from_comm*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_pevent_, const char pass:[*]_comm_, struct cmdline pass:[*]_next_);
+int *tep_cmdline_pid*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_pevent_, struct cmdline pass:[*]_cmdline_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+These functions can be used to handle the mapping between pid and process name.
+The library builds a cache of these mappings, which is used to display the name
+of the process, instead of its pid. This information can be retrieved from
+tracefs/saved_cmdlines file.
+
+The *tep_register_comm()* function registers a _pid_ / process name mapping.
+If a command with the same _pid_ is already registered, an error is returned.
+The _pid_ argument is the process ID, the _comm_ argument is the process name,
+_tep_ is the event context. The _comm_ is duplicated internally.
+
+The *tep_override_comm()* function registers a _pid_ / process name mapping.
+If a process with the same pid is already registered, the process name string is
+udapted with the new one. The _pid_ argument is the process ID, the _comm_
+argument is the process name, _tep_ is the event context. The _comm_ is
+duplicated internally.
+
+The *tep_is_pid_registered()* function checks if a pid has a process name
+mapping registered. The _pid_ argument is the process ID, _tep_ is the event
+context.
+
+The *tep_data_comm_from_pid()* function returns the process name for a given
+pid. The _pid_ argument is the process ID, _tep_ is the event context.
+The returned string should not be freed, but will be freed when the _tep_
+handler is closed.
+
+The *tep_data_pid_from_comm()* function returns a pid for a given process name.
+The _comm_ argument is the process name, _tep_ is the event context.
+The argument _next_ is the cmdline structure to search for the next pid.
+As there may be more than one pid for a given process, the result of this call
+can be passed back into a recurring call in the _next_ parameter, to search for
+the next pid. If _next_ is NULL, it will return the first pid associated with
+the _comm_. The function performs a linear search, so it may be slow.
+
+The *tep_cmdline_pid()* function returns the pid associated with a given
+_cmdline_. The _tep_ argument is the event context.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+*tep_register_comm()* function returns 0 on success. In case of an error -1 is
+returned and errno is set to indicate the cause of the problem: ENOMEM, if there
+is not enough memory to duplicate the _comm_ or EEXIST if a mapping for this
+_pid_ is already registered.
+
+*tep_override_comm()* function returns 0 on success. In case of an error -1 is
+returned and errno is set to indicate the cause of the problem: ENOMEM, if there
+is not enough memory to duplicate the _comm_.
+
+*tep_is_pid_registered()* function returns true if the _pid_ has a process name
+mapped to it, false otherwise.
+
+*tep_data_comm_from_pid()* function returns the process name as string, or the
+string "<...>" if there is no mapping for the given pid.
+
+*tep_data_pid_from_comm()* function returns a pointer to a struct cmdline, that
+holds a pid for a given process, or NULL if none is found. This result can be
+passed back into a recurring call as the _next_ parameter of the function.
+
+*tep_cmdline_pid()* functions returns the pid for the give cmdline. If _cmdline_
+ is NULL, then -1 is returned.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+The following example registers pid for command "ls", in context of event _tep_
+and performs various searches for pid / process name mappings:
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+...
+int ret;
+int ls_pid = 1021;
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+ ret = tep_register_comm(tep, "ls", ls_pid);
+ if (ret != 0 && errno == EEXIST)
+ ret = tep_override_comm(tep, "ls", ls_pid);
+ if (ret != 0) {
+ /* Failed to register pid / command mapping */
+ }
+...
+ if (tep_is_pid_registered(tep, ls_pid) == 0) {
+ /* Command mapping for ls_pid is not registered */
+ }
+...
+ const char *comm = tep_data_comm_from_pid(tep, ls_pid);
+ if (comm) {
+ /* Found process name for ls_pid */
+ }
+...
+ int pid;
+ struct cmdline *cmd = tep_data_pid_from_comm(tep, "ls", NULL);
+ while (cmd) {
+ pid = tep_cmdline_pid(tep, cmd);
+ /* Found pid for process "ls" */
+ cmd = tep_data_pid_from_comm(tep, "ls", cmd);

+Print libtraceevent internal information.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+*#include <trace-seq.h>*
+
+void *tep_print_printk*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]tep);

+void *tep_set_test_filters*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]tep, int test_filters);
+void *tep_plugin_print_options*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]s);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The *tep_print_printk()* function prints the printk string formats that were
+stored for this tracing session. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+
+The *tep_print_funcs()* function prints the stored function name to address mapping
+for this tracing session. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+
+The *tep_set_test_filters()* function sets a flag to test a filter string. If this
+flag is set, when *tep_filter_add_filter_str()* API as called, it will print the filter
+string instead of adding it. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+The _test_filters_ argument is the test flag that will be set.
+
+The *tep_plugin_print_options()* function writes a list of the registered plugin options
+into _s_.

+struct tep_event pass:[*]*tep_find_event_by_record*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+This set of functions can be used to search for an event, based on a given
+criteria. All functions require a pointer to a _tep_, trace event parser
+context.
+
+The *tep_find_event()* function searches for an event by given event _id_. The
+event ID is assigned dynamically and can be viewed in event's format file,
+"ID" field.
+
+The *tep_find_event_by_name()* function searches for an event by given
+event _name_, under the system _sys_. If the _sys_ is NULL (not specified),
+the first event with _name_ is returned.
+
+The tep_find_event_by_record()* function searches for an event from a given
+_record_.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+All these functions return a pointer to the found event, or NULL if there is no
+such event.
+
+EXAMPLE

+libtraceevent(3)
+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_list_events, tep_list_events_copy -
+Get list of events, sorted by given criteria.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+enum *tep_event_sort_type* {
+ _TEP_EVENT_SORT_ID_,
+ _TEP_EVENT_SORT_NAME_,
+ _TEP_EVENT_SORT_SYSTEM_,
+};
+
+struct tep_event pass:[*]pass:[*]*tep_list_events*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, enum tep_event_sort_type _sort_type_);
+struct tep_event pass:[*]pass:[*]*tep_list_events_copy*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, enum tep_event_sort_type _sort_type_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The *tep_list_events()* function returns an array of pointers to the events,
+sorted by the _sort_type_ criteria. The last element of the array is NULL.
+The returned memory must not be freed, it is managed by the library.
+The function is not thread safe. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser
+context. The _sort_type_ argument is the required sort criteria:
+[verse]
+--
+ _TEP_EVENT_SORT_ID_ - sort by the event ID.
+ _TEP_EVENT_SORT_NAME_ - sort by the event (name, system, id) triplet.
+ _TEP_EVENT_SORT_SYSTEM_ - sort by the event (system, name, id) triplet.
+--
+
+The *tep_list_events_copy()* is a thread safe version of _tep_list_events()_.
+It has the same behavior, but the returned array is allocated internally and
+must be freed by the caller. Note that the content of the array must not be
+freed (see the EXAMPLE below).
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_list_events()* function returns an array of pointers to events.
+In case of an error, NULL is returned. The returned array must not be freed,
+it is managed by the library.
+
+The *tep_list_events_copy()* function returns an array of pointers to events.
+In case of an error, NULL is returned. The returned array must be freed by
+the caller.

+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();

+libtraceevent(3)
+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_print_event - Writes event information into a trace sequence.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+*#include <trace-seq.h>*
+
+void *tep_print_event*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, struct trace_seqpass:[*]_s_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_, const char pass:[*]_fmt_, _..._)
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+The *tep_print_event()* function parses the event information of the given
+_record_ and writes it into the trace sequence _s_, according to the format
+string _fmt_. The desired information is specified after the format string.
+The _fmt_ is printf-like format string, following arguments are supported:
+[verse]
+--
+ TEP_PRINT_PID, "%d" - PID of the event.
+ TEP_PRINT_CPU, "%d" - Event CPU.
+ TEP_PRINT_COMM, "%s" - Event command string.
+ TEP_PRINT_NAME, "%s" - Event name.
+ TEP_PRINT_LATENCY, "%s" - Latency of the event. It prints 4 or more
+ fields - interrupt state, scheduling state,
+ current context, and preemption count.
+ Field 1 is the interrupt enabled state:
+ d : Interrupts are disabled
+ . : Interrupts are enabled
+ X : The architecture does not support this
+ information
+ Field 2 is the "need resched" state.
+ N : The task is set to call the scheduler when
+ possible, as another higher priority task
+ may need to be scheduled in.
+ . : The task is not set to call the scheduler.
+ Field 3 is the context state.
+ . : Normal context
+ s : Soft interrupt context
+ h : Hard interrupt context
+ H : Hard interrupt context which triggered
+ during soft interrupt context.
+ z : NMI context
+ Z : NMI context which triggered during hard
+ interrupt context
+ Field 4 is the preemption count.
+ . : The preempt count is zero.
+ On preemptible kernels (where the task can be scheduled
+ out in arbitrary locations while in kernel context), the
+ preempt count, when non zero, will prevent the kernel
+ from scheduling out the current task. The preempt count
+ number is displayed when it is not zero.
+ Depending on the kernel, it may show other fields
+ (lock depth, or migration disabled, which are unique to
+ specialized kernels).
+ TEP_PRINT_TIME, %d - event time stamp. A divisor and precision can be
+ specified as part of this format string:
+ "%precision.divisord". Example:
+ "%3.1000d" - divide the time by 1000 and print the first
+ 3 digits before the dot. Thus, the time stamp
+ "123456000" will be printed as "123.456"
+ TEP_PRINT_INFO, "%s" - event information.
+ TEP_PRINT_INFO_RAW, "%s" - event information, in raw format.

+tep_get_any_field_val, tep_get_common_field_val, tep_get_field_val,
+tep_get_field_raw - Get value of a field.

+
+int *tep_get_any_field_val*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, struct tep_event pass:[*]_event_, const char pass:[*]_name_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_, unsigned long long pass:[*]_val_, int _err_);
+int *tep_get_common_field_val*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, struct tep_event pass:[*]_event_, const char pass:[*]_name_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_, unsigned long long pass:[*]_val_, int _err_);

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+These functions can be used to find a field and retrieve its value.
+
+The *tep_get_any_field_val()* function searches in the _record_ for a field
+with _name_, part of the _event_. If the field is found, its value is stored in
+_val_. If there is an error and _err_ is not zero, then an error string is
+written into _s_.
+
+The *tep_get_common_field_val()* function does the same as
+*tep_get_any_field_val()*, but searches only in the common fields. This works
+for any event as all events include the common fields.
+
+The *tep_get_field_val()* function does the same as *tep_get_any_field_val()*,
+but searches only in the event specific fields.
+
+The *tep_get_field_raw()* function searches in the _record_ for a field with
+_name_, part of the _event_. If the field is found, a pointer to where the field
+exists in the record's raw data is returned. The size of the data is stored in
+_len_. If there is an error and _err_ is not zero, then an error string is
+written into _s_.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_get_any_field_val()*, *tep_get_common_field_val()* and
+*tep_get_field_val()* functions return 0 on success, or -1 in case of an error.
+
+The *tep_get_field_raw()* function returns a pointer to field's raw data, and
+places the length of this data in _len_. In case of an error NULL is returned.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+#include <trace-seq.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+struct tep_event *event = tep_find_event_by_name(tep, "kvm", "kvm_exit");

+ struct tep_event *event;
+ unsigned long long val;
+
+ event = tep_find_event_by_record(tep, record);
+ if (event != NULL) {
+ if (tep_get_common_field_val(NULL, event, "common_type",
+ record, &val, 0) == 0) {
+ /* Got the value of common type field */
+ }
+ if (tep_get_field_val(NULL, event, "pid", record, &val, 0) == 0) {

+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_print_field_content, tep_print_fields, tep_print_num_field, tep_print_func_field, tep_record_print_fields, tep_record_print_selected_fields -
+Print the field content.
+
+SYNOPSIS

+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+*#include <trace-seq.h>*
+
+void *tep_print_field_content*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, void pass:[*]_data_, int size, struct tep_format_field pass:[*]_field_);

+void *tep_record_print_selected_fields*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_, struct tep_event pass:[*]_event_, int _select_mask_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+These functions print recorded field's data, according to the field's type.
+
+The *tep_print_field_content()* function extracts from the recorded raw _data_ value of
+the _field_ and prints it into _s_, according to the field type.
+
+The *tep_print_fields()* prints each field name followed by the record's field
+value according to the field's type:
+[verse]
+--
+"field1_name=field1_value field2_name=field2_value ..."
+--
+It iterates all fields of the _event_, and calls *tep_print_field_content()* for each of
+them.
+
+The *tep_print_num_field()* function prints a numeric field with given format
+string. A search is performed in the _event_ for a field with _name_. If such
+field is found, its value is extracted from the _record_ and is printed in the
+_s_, according to the given format string _fmt_. If the argument _err_ is
+non-zero, and an error occures - it is printed in the _s_.
+
+The *tep_print_func_field()* function prints a function field with given format
+string. A search is performed in the _event_ for a field with _name_. If such
+field is found, its value is extracted from the _record_. The value is assumed
+to be a function address, and a search is perform to find the name of this
+function. The function name (if found) and its address are printed in the _s_,
+according to the given format string _fmt_. If the argument _err_ is non-zero,
+and an error occures - it is printed in _s_.
+
+The *tep_record_print_fields()* prints the field's name followed by its value
+for all record's field.
+
+The *tep_record_print_selected_fields()* prints the field's name followed by
+its value for selected subset of record field. The fields to be printed are
+defined by the _select_mask_ bit mask.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_print_num_field()* and *tep_print_func_field()* functions return 1
+on success, -1 in case of an error or 0 if the print buffer _s_ is full.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+#include <trace-seq.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+struct trace_seq seq;

+{
+ struct tep_format_field *field_pid = tep_find_common_field(event, "common_pid");
+
+ trace_seq_reset(&seq);
+
+ /* Print the value of "common_pid" */
+ tep_print_field_content(&seq, record->data, record->size, field_pid);
+
+ /* Print all fields of the "hrtimer_start" event */
+ tep_print_fields(&seq, record->data, record->size, event);
+
+ /* Print the value of "expires" field with custom format string */

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Filters can be attached to traced events. They can be used to filter out various
+events when outputting them. Each event can be filtered based on its parameters,
+described in the event's format file. This set of functions can be used to
+create, delete, modify and attach event filters.
+
+The *tep_filter_alloc()* function creates a new event filter. The _tep_ argument
+is the trace event parser context.
+
+The *tep_filter_free()* function frees an event filter and all resources that it
+had used.
+
+The *tep_filter_reset()* function removes all rules from an event filter and
+resets it.
+
+The *tep_filter_add_filter_str()* function adds a new rule to the _filter_. The
+_filter_str_ argument is the filter string, that contains the rule.
+
+The *tep_event_filtered()* function checks if the event with _event_id_ has
+_filter_.
+
+The *tep_filter_remove_event()* function removes a _filter_ for an event with
+_event_id_.
+
+The *tep_filter_match()* function tests if a _record_ matches given _filter_.
+
+The *tep_filter_copy()* function copies a _source_ filter into a _dest_ filter.
+
+The *tep_filter_compare()* function compares two filers - _filter1_ and _filter2_.
+
+The *tep_filter_make_string()* function constructs a string, displaying
+the _filter_ contents for given _event_id_.
+
+The *tep_filter_strerror()* function copies the _filter_ error buffer into the
+given _buf_ with the size _buflen_. If the error buffer is empty, in the _buf_
+is copied a string, describing the error _err_.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_filter_alloc()* function returns a pointer to the newly created event
+filter, or NULL in case of an error.
+
+The *tep_filter_add_filter_str()* function returns 0 if the rule was
+successfully added or a negative error code. Use *tep_filter_strerror()* to see
+actual error message in case of an error.
+
+The *tep_event_filtered()* function returns 1 if the filter is found for given
+event, or 0 otherwise.
+
+The *tep_filter_remove_event()* function returns 1 if the vent was removed, or
+0 if the event was not found.
+
+The *tep_filter_match()* function returns _tep_errno_, according to the result:
+[verse]
+--
+_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__FILTER_MATCH]_ - filter found for event, the record matches.
+_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__FILTER_MISS]_ - filter found for event, the record does not match.
+_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__FILTER_NOT_FOUND]_ - no filter found for record's event.
+_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__NO_FILTER]_ - no rules in the filter.
+--
+or any other _tep_errno_, if an error occurred during the test.
+
+The *tep_filter_copy()* function returns 0 on success or -1 if not all rules
+ were copied.
+
+The *tep_filter_compare()* function returns 1 if the two filters hold the same
+content, or 0 if they do not.
+
+The *tep_filter_make_string()* function returns a string, which must be freed
+with free(), or NULL in case of an error.
+
+The *tep_filter_strerror()* function returns 0 if message was filled
+successfully, or -1 in case of an error.
+
+EXAMPLE

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Some tools may have already a way to resolve the kernel functions. These APIs
+allow them to keep using it instead of duplicating all the entries inside.
+
+The _tep_func_resolver_t_ type is the prototype of the alternative kernel
+functions resolver. This function receives a pointer to its custom context
+(set with the *tep_set_function_resolver()* call ) and the address of a kernel
+function, which has to be resolved. In case of success, it should return
+the name of the function and its module (if any) in _modp_.
+
+The *tep_set_function_resolver()* function registers _func_ as an alternative
+kernel functions resolver. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+The _priv_ argument is a custom context of the _func_ function. The function
+resolver is used by the APIs *tep_find_function*(3),
+*tep_find_function_address*(3), and *tep_print_func_field()* to resolve
+a function address to a function name.
+
+The *tep_reset_function_resolver()* function resets the kernel functions
+resolver to the default function. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser
+context.
+
+
+These APIs can be used to find function name and start address, by given
+address. The given address does not have to be exact, it will select
+the function that would contain it.
+
+The *tep_register_function()* function registers a function name mapped to an
+address and (optional) module. This mapping is used in case the function tracer
+or events have "%pS" parameter in its format string. It is common to pass in
+the kallsyms function names with their corresponding addresses with this
+function. The _tep_ argument is the trace event parser context. The _name_ is
+the name of the function, the string is copied internally. The _addr_ is the
+start address of the function. The _mod_ is the kernel module the function may
+be in (NULL for none).
+
+The *tep_register_print_string()* function registers a string by the address
+it was stored in the kernel. Some strings internal to the kernel with static
+address are passed to certain events. The "%s" in the event's format field
+which has an address needs to know what string would be at that address. The
+tep_register_print_string() supplies the parsing with the mapping between kernel
+addresses and those strings. The _tep_ argument is the trace event parser
+context. The _fmt_ is the string to register, it is copied internally.
+The _addr_ is the address the string was located at.
+
+*tep_get_function_count*() returns the number of registered functions in a tep handler.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_set_function_resolver()* function returns 0 in case of success, or -1
+in case of an error.
+
+The *tep_register_function()* function returns 0 in case of success. In case of
+an error -1 is returned, and errno is set to the appropriate error number.
+
+The *tep_register_print_string()* function returns 0 in case of success. In case
+of an error -1 is returned, and errno is set to the appropriate error number.

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+These functions can be used to find function name and start address, by given
+address. The given address does not have to be exact, it will select the function
+that would contain it.
+
+The *tep_find_function()* function returns the function name, which contains the

+
+The *tep_find_function_address()* function returns the function start address,
+by given address _addr_. The _addr_ does not have to be exact, it will select the
+function that would contain it. The _tep_ argument is the trace event parser context.
+
+The *tep_find_function_info()* function retrieves the _name_, starting address (_start_),
+and the function text _size_ of the function at _address_, if it is found. Note,
+if the _tep_ handle has a function resolver (used by perf), then _size_ is set to
+zero.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_find_function()* function returns the function name, or NULL in case
+it cannot be found.
+
+The *tep_find_function_address()* function returns the function start address,
+or 0 in case it cannot be found.
+
+The *tep_find_function_info()* function returns 1 if a function is found for the
+given address, or 0 if it is not.

+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_alloc, tep_free,tep_ref, tep_unref,tep_get_ref, tep_kbuffer - Create, destroy, manage
+references of trace event parser context.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+struct tep_handle pass:[*]*tep_alloc*(void);
+void *tep_free*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+void *tep_ref*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+void *tep_unref*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+int *tep_get_ref*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+These are the main functions to create and destroy tep_handle - the main
+structure, representing the trace event parser context. This context is used as
+the input parameter of most library APIs.
+
+The *tep_alloc()* function allocates and initializes the tep context.
+
+The *tep_free()* function will decrement the reference of the _tep_ handler.
+When there is no more references, then it will free the handler, as well
+as clean up all its resources that it had used. The argument _tep_ is
+the pointer to the trace event parser context.
+
+The *tep_ref()* function adds a reference to the _tep_ handler.
+
+The *tep_unref()* function removes a reference from the _tep_ handler. When
+the last reference is removed, the _tep_ is destroyed, and all resources that
+it had used are cleaned up.
+
+The *tep_ref_get()* functions gets the current references of the _tep_ handler.
+
+The *tep_kbuffer()* function allocates a kbuffer descriptor that can be used to
+parse raw data that is represented by the _tep_ handle descriptor. It must be freed
+with *kbuf_free(3)*.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+*tep_alloc()* returns a pointer to a newly created tep_handle structure.
+NULL is returned in case there is not enough free memory to allocate it.
+
+*tep_ref_get()* returns the current references of _tep_.
+If _tep_ is NULL, 0 is returned.
+
+*tep_kbuffer()* returns a kbuffer descriptor that can parse the raw data that
+represents the tep handle. Must be freed with *kbuf_free(3)*.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+int ref = tep_get_ref(tep);
+tep_ref(tep);
+if ( (ref+1) != tep_get_ref(tep)) {
+ /* Something wrong happened, the counter is not incremented by 1 */
+}

+
+int *tep_get_header_page_size*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+int *tep_get_header_timestamp_size*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+bool *tep_is_old_format*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+--
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+These functions retrieve information from kernel context, stored in tracefs
+events/header_page. Old kernels do not have header page info, so default values
+from user space context are used.
+
+The *tep_get_header_page_size()* function returns the size of a long integer,
+in kernel context. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+This information is retrieved from tracefs events/header_page, "commit" field.
+
+The *tep_get_header_timestamp_size()* function returns the size of timestamps,
+in kernel context. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context. This
+information is retrieved from tracefs events/header_page, "timestamp" field.
+
+The *tep_is_old_format()* function returns true if the kernel predates
+the addition of events/header_page, otherwise it returns false.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_get_header_page_size()* function returns the size of a long integer,
+in bytes.
+
+The *tep_get_header_timestamp_size()* function returns the size of timestamps,
+in bytes.
+
+The *tep_is_old_format()* function returns true, if an old kernel is used to
+generate the tracing data, which has no event/header_page. If the kernel is new,
+or _tep_ is NULL, false is returned.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>

+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+
+The *tep_is_bigendian()* gets the endianness of the machine, executing
+the function.
+
+The *tep_is_local_bigendian()* function gets the endianness of the local
+machine, saved in the _tep_ handler. The _tep_ argument is the trace event
+parser context. This API is a bit faster than *tep_is_bigendian()*, as it
+returns cached endianness of the local machine instead of checking it each time.
+
+The *tep_set_local_bigendian()* function sets the endianness of the local
+machine in the _tep_ handler. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+The _endian_ argument is the endianness:
+[verse]
+--
+ _TEP_LITTLE_ENDIAN_ - the machine is little endian,
+ _TEP_BIG_ENDIAN_ - the machine is big endian.
+--
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_is_bigendian()* function returns non zero if the endianness of the
+machine, executing the code, is big endian and zero otherwise.
+
+The *tep_is_local_bigendian()* function returns true, if the endianness of the
+local machine, saved in the _tep_ handler, is big endian, or false otherwise.
+

+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+These functions create a _kbuffer_ handle that can be used to parse the raw sub buffers
+of the Linux kernel tracing ring buffer. The ring buffer is found in the tracefs
+directory, and can be retrieved by *tracefs_instance_get_file(3)* at
+*per_cpu/cpuX/trace_pipe_raw* where *X* is replaced by the per CPU number of
+the specified ring buffer. The ring buffer inside the kernel is split up per
+CPU, such that the raw ring buffer must be retrieved per CPU as well.
+
+The *kbuffer_alloc()* will create a descriptor that can be used to manage a sub buffer
+read by the ring buffer. The _size_ parameter denotes what the word size is
+for the given buffer (note, this works from reading raw data from machines other
+than the machine that is calling this function). The _endian_ denotes the endian
+for the machine.
+
+If _endian_ is set to _KBUFFER_ENDIAN_SAME_AS_HOST_ the endian will be set to the same
+as the host endianess, which is useful when the application is reading the
+ring buffer data directly from the same machine it is running on.
+
+If _size_ is set to _KBUFFER_LSIZE_SAME_AS_HOST_, if the word size is 8, it will
+set the kbuffer descriptor to long size of 8. But if the size is 4, then it
+will then perform a *uname(2)* call, and if the _machine_ field has the string "64"
+in it, it will be set to 8 byte long size and not 4 byte. This is because the
+ring buffer long size is dependent on the kernel and not user space.
+
+The *kbuffer_free()* function will free the resources created by *kbuffer_alloc()*.
+
+The *kbuffer_load_subbuffer()* will take a _subbuffer_ which is a raw data blob
+from the tracefs *trace_pipe_raw* file. The Linux tracing ring buffer is broken up
+into sub buffers. Each sub buffer is as stand alone data segment that has all the
+information to split out the individual events and time stamps. This sub buffer
+is what kbuffer uses to walk the events.
+
+The *kbuffer_subbuffer_size()* returns the location of the end of the last event
+on the sub-buffer. It does not return the size of the sub-buffer itself.
+
+The *kbuffer_start_of_data()* function returns the offset of where the actual
+data load of the sub-buffer begins.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+*kbuffer_alloc()* returns an allocated kbuffer descriptor or NULL on error.
+The returned descriptor must be freed with *kbuffer_free()*
+
+*kbuffer_load_subbuffer()* returns 0 on success and -1 on error.
+
+*kbuffer_subbuffer_size()* returns the index on the subbuffer where the end
+of the last event is located.
+
+*kbuffer_start_of_data()* returns the offset of where the data begins on the
+sub-buffer loaded in _kbuf_.

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The function *kbuffer_read_event()* reads the next event in the _kbuf_ descriptor
+and if _ts_ is non NULL, will place its timestamp into it. This does not modify the _kbuf_
+descriptor, and calling this function mulitple times will return the same result.
+
+The function *kbuffer_next_event()* will return the next event in the _kbuf_ descriptor.
+It will also set the _ts_ to the timestamp of the returned event. NULL is returned
+if there are no more events and _ts_ will be undefined. Note, if this is called directly
+after a *kbuffer_load_subbuffer()* then it will likely give an unexpected result, as it
+will return the second event and not the first event. Usually this function is only used
+to move to the next event and to know if there's any more events to read, and
+*kbuffer_read_event()* is always called first.
+
+The function *kbuffer_read_at_offset()* returns the event located at a given _offset_ from
+the beginning of the sub-buffer. This offset can be retrieved by *kbuffer_curr_offset()*.
+If _ts_ points to an unsigned long long, then it will be set to the event at the given
+offset's timestamp.
+
+If the sub-buffer had missed events before it, then *kbuffer_missed_events()* will return
+the non zero. If it returns -1, that means there were missed events, but the exact number
+of missed events is unknown. If it returns a positive number, then the number of missed events
+is the return value.
+
+The *kbuffer_event_size()* function returns the size of the data portion of the current event
+(the one that would be returned by *kbuffer_read_event()*.
+
+The *kbuffer_curr_size()* function returns the entire record size of the current event
+(the one that would be returned by *kbuffer_read_event()*. The difference here is that the
+return value includes the size of the event record meta data that is not part of what
+is returned by *kbuffer_read_event()*.
+
+The *kbuffer_curr_offset()* function returns the offset from the beginning of the sub-buffer
+of where the current event's meta data for the record begins. The first event will
+not be at offset zero. This offset can be used to retrieve the event with
+*kbuffer_read_at_offset()*.
+
+The *kbuffer_curr_index()* function returns the index from the beginning of the data
+portion of the sub-buffer where the current evnet's meta data is located.
+The first event will likely be zero, but may not be if there's a timestamp attached to it.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+*kbuffer_read_event()* returns the event that the _kbuf_ descriptor is currently at,
+or NULL if the last event was passed (by *kbuffer_next_event()*).
+
+*kbuffer_next_event()* returns the next event after the current event or NULL if there
+are no more events.
+
+*kbuffer_read_at_offset()* returns the event at a given _offset_ from the start of
+the sub-buffer stored in _kbuf_, or NULL if there exists no event. Note, _offset_
+only needs to be an offset that lands on the record, or is at the start of it. It does
+not need to be exactly at the beginning of the record.
+
+*kbuffer_missed_events()* returns 0 if there were no missed events before loaded sub-buffer.
+Returns -1 if there were an unknown number of missed events, or if the number of missed events
+is known, that number will be returned.
+
+*kbuffer_event_size()* returns the size of the data payload of the current event of _kbuf_.
+
+*kbuffer_curr_size()* returns the size of the entire record of the current event of _kbuf_.
+This includes the size of the meta data for that record.
+
+*kbuf_curr_offset()* returns the offset of the current record from the beginning of the _kbuf_
+sub-buffer.
+
+*kbuf_curr_index()* returns the index of the current record from the beginning of the _kbuf_
+data section.

+NAME
+----
+tep_plugin_kvm_get_func, tep_plugin_kvm_put_func - Add function name for instruction pointer of kvm plugin
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+const char pass:[*]*tep_plugin_kvm_get_func*(struct tep_event pass:[*]event,
+ struct tep_record pass:[*]record,
+ unsigned long long pass:[*]paddr);
+void *tep_plugin_kvm_put_func*(const char pass:[*]func);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The functions *tep_plugin_kvm_get_func()* and *tep_plugin_kvm_put_func()*
+are not to be called by an application, but instead are to be defined by
+an application.
+
+Certain events (like kvm_exit and kvm_entry) have the instruction pointer
+of where in the guest the context changed from guest to host. As the host
+only knows the instruction pointer and does not have information about what
+function in the guest that instruction pointer belongs to, it can only print
+the address.
+
+But the application may have more information about the guest, and know where
+the guest was when the exit occurred, and also even know the function name
+of that address.
+
+The KVM plugin for libtraceevent is called on these events, and then calls
+*tep_plugin_kvm_get_func()* to see if that function can resolve the instruction
+pointer address to a real function name. If the return is non NULL, it will
+print the function in the output for that event.
+
+These functions are currently defined as weak functions within the plugin, as
+to not require them to be defined elsewhere. For an application to override
+the weak function, it will need to define the function in a file that gets
+compiled with *-rdynamic*. That will tell the dynamic linker to examine that
+object file and use function names to resolve weak functions in other shared
+objects (in this case the KVM plugin shared object).
+
+If the application defines *tep_plugin_kvm_get_func()*, it must use the above
+prototype. The _event_ will hold the KVM event that has the instruction pointer
+field. The _record_ will be the instance of that event. The application's function
+does not need to use these parameters, but they may be useful for finding the
+function name for the address. The _paddr_ is a pointer to a 64 bit value (where
+only 32 bits may be used on 32 bit machines). This value is the instruction
+pointer to look up. If the application knows the start address of the function
+as well, it can set _paddr_ to that address, and the KVM plugin will also
+append a "+offset" to the function name where the offset is the original
+value in _paddr_ minus the value in _paddr_ when it is called. Finally,
+the application should return the function name as a nul terminated string
+if one is found.
+
+If the returned string of *tep_plugin_kvm_get_func()* was allocated, the KVM plugin
+will call *tep_plugin_kvm_put_func()* when it is through with it, passing the
+value returned by *tep_plugin_kvm_get_func()* as _func_. This allows the application
+to free it if necessary.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_plugin_kvm_get_func()* is not to be called by the application but instead
+is to be defined by the application. It should return a nul terminated string representing
+the function for the given instruction pointer passed to it by reference in _paddr_. It
+can then optionally update the _paddr_ to a value that holds the start of the function.
+The string returned may be freed by the *tep_plugin_kvm_put_func()* that the application
+should define to clean up the string.
+
+The below example needs to be compiled with the *-rdynamic* flag so that the dynamic
+linker can resolve the *tep_plugin_kvm_get_func()* and *tep_plugin_kvm_put_func()* functions.
+
+When run against a trace.dat file produced by *trace-cmd(1)* recording the kvm_exit and
+kvm_entry events on a guest, and then the guest's /proc/kallsyms file is passed as the
+second parameter, the output produced will look something like:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+CPU 0/KVM-20407 83156.177626 [000] kvm_exit reason APIC_ACCESS rip 0xffffffffb0056ee2 exit native_apic_mem_write+0x2 info 10b0 0

+--
+
+But without those callbacks, it would look like:
+
+[source,c]
+--
+CPU 0/KVM-20407 83156.177626 [000] kvm_exit reason APIC_ACCESS rip 0xffffffffb0056ee2 info 10b0 0

+tep_set_loglevel - Set log level of the library
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+enum *tep_loglevel* {
+ TEP_LOG_NONE = 0,
+ TEP_LOG_CRITICAL,
+ TEP_LOG_ERROR,
+ TEP_LOG_WARNING,
+ TEP_LOG_INFO,
+ TEP_LOG_DEBUG,
+ TEP_LOG_ALL
+};
+
+int *tep_set_loglevel*(enum tep_loglevel _level_);
+
+--
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The *tep_set_loglevel()* function sets the level of the library logs that will be printed
+on the console. Library log levels are:
+[verse]
+--
+ _TEP_LOG_NONE_ - Do not print any logs.
+ _TEP_LOG_CRITICAL_ - Print critical logs, problem that may cause a crash.
+ _TEP_LOG_ERROR_ - Print error logs, problem that could break the main logic of an API.
+ _TEP_LOG_WARNING_ - Print warnings, problem that could limit the result of an API.
+ _TEP_LOG_INFO_ - Print information about normal execution of an API.
+ _TEP_LOG_DEBUG_ - Print debug information.
+ _TEP_LOG_ALL_ - Print logs from all levels.
+--
+Setting the log level to specific value means that logs from the previous levels will be printed
+too. For example _TEP_LOG_WARNING_ will print any logs with severity _TEP_LOG_WARNING_,
+_TEP_LOG_ERROR_ and _TEP_LOG_CRITICAL_. The default log level is _TEP_LOG_CRITICAL_.
+

+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_parse_saved_cmdlines, tep_parse_printk_formats, tep_parse_kallsyms
+- Parsing functions to load mappings
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+int *tep_parse_saved_cmdlines*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_buf_);
+int *tep_parse_printk_formats*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_buf_);
+int *tep_parse_kallsyms*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_buf_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+*tep_parse_saved_cmdlines()* is a helper function to parse content in the tracefs
+file system of the "saved_cmdlines" file (stored in a string buffer passed in by _buf_)
+and loads the mapping of the process IDs (pid) to the comm names in the
+_tep_ handler. The events store the pid and this is used to be able to show the
+process names associated to those process ids. It parses the string _buf_ that
+holds the content of saved_cmdlines and ends with a nul character ('\0').
+
+*tep_parse_printk_formats()* is a helper function to parse content in the tracefs
+file system of the "printk_formats" file (stored in a string buffer passed in by _buf_)
+and loads the mapping of addresses of strings that may be referenced by events.
+Events only store the address of constant strings in the kernel, and the mapping
+of their address to the string is exported to user space in the printk_formats
+file. It parses the string _buf_ that holds the content of printk_formats and
+ends with a nul character ('\0').
+
+*tep_parse_kallsyms()* is a helper function to parse the Linux kernel /proc/kallsyms format
+(stored in a string buffer passed in by _buf_) and load the functions into the
+_tep_ handler such that function IP addresses can be mapped to their name when
+parsing events with %pS in the print format field. It parses the string _buf_ that
+holds the content of /proc/kallsyms and ends with a nul character ('\0').
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_parse_saved_cmdlines*() function returns 0 in case of success, or -1
+in case of an error.
+
+The *tep_parse_printk_formats*() function returns 0 in case of success, or -1
+in case of an error.
+
+The *tep_parse_kallsyms*() function returns 0 in case of success, or -1
+in case of an error.

+NAME
+----
+tep_parse_event, tep_parse_format - Parse the event format information
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#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;

+
+int *tep_parse_header_page*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, char pass:[*]_buf_, unsigned long _size_, int _long_size_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The *tep_parse_header_page()* function parses the header page data from _buf_,
+and initializes the _tep_, trace event parser context, with it. The buffer
+_buf_ is with _size_, and is supposed to be copied from
+tracefs/events/header_page.
+
+Some old kernels do not have header page info, in this case the
+*tep_parse_header_page()* function can be called with _size_ equal to 0. The
+_tep_ context is initialized with default values. The _long_size_ can be used in
+this use case, to set the size of a long integer to be used.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_parse_header_page()* function returns 0 in case of success, or -1
+in case of an error.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>

+NAME
+----
+tep_load_plugins, tep_unload_plugins, tep_load_plugins_hook, tep_add_plugin_path,
+tep_plugin_add_option - Load / unload traceevent plugins.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+struct tep_plugin_list pass:[*]*tep_load_plugins*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+void *tep_unload_plugins*(struct tep_plugin_list pass:[*]_plugin_list_, struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
+void *tep_load_plugins_hook*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, const char pass:[*]_suffix_,
+ void (pass:[*]_load_plugin_)(struct tep_handle pass:[*]tep,
+ const char pass:[*]path,
+ const char pass:[*]name,
+ void pass:[*]data),
+ void pass:[*]_data_);
+int *tep_add_plugin_path*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]tep, char pass:[*]path,
+ enum tep_plugin_load_priority prio);
+int *tep_plugin_add_option*(const char pass:[*]_name_, const char pass:[*]_val_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The *tep_load_plugins()* function loads all plugins, located in the plugin
+directories. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+The plugin directories are :
+[verse]
+--
+ - Directories, specified in _tep_->plugins_dir with priority TEP_PLUGIN_FIRST
+ - System's plugin directory, defined at the library compile time. It
+ depends on the library installation prefix and usually is
+ _(install_preffix)/lib/traceevent/plugins_
+ - Directory, defined by the environment variable _TRACEEVENT_PLUGIN_DIR_
+ - User's plugin directory, located at _~/.local/lib/traceevent/plugins_
+ - Directories, specified in _tep_->plugins_dir with priority TEP_PLUGIN_LAST
+--
+Loading of plugins can be controlled by the _tep_flags_, using the
+*tep_set_flag()* API:
+[verse]
+--
+ _TEP_DISABLE_SYS_PLUGINS_ - do not load plugins, located in
+ the system's plugin directory.
+ _TEP_DISABLE_PLUGINS_ - do not load any plugins.
+--
+The *tep_set_flag()* API needs to be called before *tep_load_plugins()*, if
+loading of all plugins is not the desired case.
+
+The *tep_unload_plugins()* function unloads the plugins, previously loaded by
+*tep_load_plugins()*. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context. The
+_plugin_list_ is the list of loaded plugins, returned by
+the *tep_load_plugins()* function.
+
+The *tep_load_plugins_hook()* function walks through all directories with plugins
+and calls user specified *load_plugin()* hook for each plugin file. Only files
+with given _suffix_ are considered to be plugins. The _data_ is a user specified
+context, passed to *load_plugin()*. Directories and the walk order are the same
+as in *tep_load_plugins()* API.
+
+The *tep_add_plugin_path()* functions adds additional directories with plugins in
+the _tep_->plugins_dir list. It must be called before *tep_load_plugins()* in order
+for the plugins from the new directories to be loaded. The _tep_ argument is
+the trace event parser context. The _path_ is the full path to the new plugin
+directory. The _prio_ argument specifies the loading priority order for the
+new directory of plugins. The loading priority is important in case of different
+versions of the same plugin located in multiple plugin directories.The last loaded
+plugin wins. The priority can be:
+[verse]
+--
+ _TEP_PLUGIN_FIRST_ - Load plugins from this directory first
+ _TEP_PLUGIN_LAST_ - Load plugins from this directory last
+--
+Where the plugins in TEP_PLUGIN_LAST" will take precedence over the
+plugins in the other directories.
+
+The *tep_plugin_add_option()* sets options defined by a plugin. The _name_ is the
+name of the option to set to _val_. Plugins can add options to change its behavior
+and *tep_plugin_add_option()* is used by the application to make those modifications.
+
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_load_plugins()* function returns a list of successfully loaded plugins,
+or NULL in case no plugins are loaded.
+The *tep_add_plugin_path()* function returns -1 in case of an error, 0 otherwise.
+
+EXAMPLE

+struct tep_plugin_list *plugins = tep_load_plugins(tep);
+if (plugins == NULL) {
+ /* no plugins are loaded */
+}
+...

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+This set of functions can be used to extract common fields from a record.
+
+The *tep_data_type()* function gets the event id from the record _rec_.
+It reads the "common_type" field. The _tep_ argument is the trace event parser
+context.
+
+The *tep_data_pid()* function gets the process id from the record _rec_.
+It reads the "common_pid" field. The _tep_ argument is the trace event parser
+context.
+
+The *tep_data_preempt_count()* function gets the preemption count from the
+record _rec_. It reads the "common_preempt_count" field. The _tep_ argument is
+the trace event parser context.
+
+The *tep_data_flags()* function gets the latency flags from the record _rec_.
+It reads the "common_flags" field. The _tep_ argument is the trace event parser
+context. Supported latency flags are:
+[verse]
+--
+ _TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_OFF_, Interrupts are disabled.
+ _TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT_, Reading IRQ flag is not supported by the architecture.
+ _TRACE_FLAG_NEED_RESCHED_, Task needs rescheduling.
+ _TRACE_FLAG_HARDIRQ_, Hard IRQ is running.
+ _TRACE_FLAG_SOFTIRQ_, Soft IRQ is running.
+--
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_data_type()* function returns an integer, representing the event id.
+
+The *tep_data_pid()* function returns an integer, representing the process id
+
+The *tep_data_preempt_count()* function returns an integer, representing the
+preemption count.
+
+The *tep_data_flags()* function returns an integer, representing the latency
+flags. Look at the _trace_flag_type_ enum for supported flags.
+
+All these functions in case of an error return a negative integer.
+

+NAME

+tep_register_event_handler, tep_unregister_event_handler - Register /
+unregisters a callback function to parse an event information.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+enum *tep_reg_handler* {
+ _TEP_REGISTER_SUCCESS_,
+ _TEP_REGISTER_SUCCESS_OVERWRITE_,
+};
+
+int *tep_register_event_handler*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, int _id_, const char pass:[*]_sys_name_, const char pass:[*]_event_name_, tep_event_handler_func _func_, void pass:[*]_context_);
+int *tep_unregister_event_handler*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]tep, int id, const char pass:[*]sys_name, const char pass:[*]event_name, tep_event_handler_func func, void pass:[*]_context_);
+
+typedef int (*pass:[*]tep_event_handler_func*)(struct trace_seq pass:[*]s, struct tep_record pass:[*]record, struct tep_event pass:[*]event, void pass:[*]context);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The *tep_register_event_handler()* function registers a handler function,
+which is going to be called to parse the information for a given event.
+The _tep_ argument is the trace event parser context. The _id_ argument is
+the id of the event. The _sys_name_ argument is the name of the system,
+the event belongs to. The _event_name_ argument is the name of the event.
+If _id_ is >= 0, it is used to find the event, otherwise _sys_name_ and
+_event_name_ are used. The _func_ is a pointer to the function, which is going
+to be called to parse the event information. The _context_ argument is a pointer
+to the context data, which will be passed to the _func_. If a handler function
+for the same event is already registered, it will be overridden with the new
+one. This mechanism allows a developer to override the parsing of a given event.
+If for some reason the default print format is not sufficient, the developer
+can register a function for an event to be used to parse the data instead.
+
+The *tep_unregister_event_handler()* function unregisters the handler function,
+previously registered with *tep_register_event_handler()*. The _tep_ argument
+is the trace event parser context. The _id_, _sys_name_, _event_name_, _func_,
+and _context_ are the same arguments, as when the callback function _func_ was
+registered.
+
+The _tep_event_handler_func_ is the type of the custom event handler
+function. The _s_ argument is the trace sequence, it can be used to create a
+custom string, describing the event. A _record_ to get the event from is passed
+as input parameter and also the _event_ - the handle to the record's event. The
+_context_ is custom context, set when the custom event handler is registered.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_register_event_handler()* function returns _TEP_REGISTER_SUCCESS_
+if the new handler is registered successfully or
+_TEP_REGISTER_SUCCESS_OVERWRITE_ if an existing handler is overwritten.
+If there is not enough memory to complete the registration,
+TEP_ERRNO__MEM_ALLOC_FAILED is returned.
+
+The *tep_unregister_event_handler()* function returns 0 if _func_ was removed
+successful or, -1 if the event was not found.
+
+The _tep_event_handler_func_ should return -1 in case of an error,
+or 0 otherwise.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+#include <trace-seq.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();

+
+ trace_seq_printf(s, " now=");
+
+ tep_print_num_field(s, "%llu", event, "now", record, 1);

+NAME
+----
+tep_register_print_function,tep_unregister_print_function -
+Registers / Unregisters a helper function.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+enum *tep_func_arg_type* {
+ TEP_FUNC_ARG_VOID,
+ TEP_FUNC_ARG_INT,
+ TEP_FUNC_ARG_LONG,
+ TEP_FUNC_ARG_STRING,

+
+int *tep_register_print_function*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, tep_func_handler _func_, enum tep_func_arg_type _ret_type_, char pass:[*]_name_, _..._);
+int *tep_unregister_print_function*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, tep_func_handler _func_, char pass:[*]_name_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Some events may have helper functions in the print format arguments.
+This allows a plugin to dynamically create a way to process one of
+these functions.
+
+The *tep_register_print_function()* registers such helper function. The _tep_
+argument is the trace event parser context. The _func_ argument is a pointer
+to the helper function. The _ret_type_ argument is the return type of the
+helper function, value from the _tep_func_arg_type_ enum. The _name_ is the name
+of the helper function, as seen in the print format arguments. The _..._ is a
+variable list of _tep_func_arg_type_ enums, the _func_ function arguments.
+This list must end with _TEP_FUNC_ARG_VOID_. See 'EXAMPLE' section.
+
+The *tep_unregister_print_function()* unregisters a helper function, previously
+registered with *tep_register_print_function()*. The _tep_ argument is the
+trace event parser context. The _func_ and _name_ arguments are the same, used
+when the helper function was registered.
+
+The _tep_func_handler_ is the type of the helper function. The _s_ argument is
+the trace sequence, it can be used to create a custom string.
+The _args_ is a list of arguments, defined when the helper function was
+registered.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_register_print_function()* function returns 0 in case of success.
+In case of an error, TEP_ERRNO_... code is returned.
+
+The *tep_unregister_print_function()* returns 0 in case of success, or -1 in
+case of an error.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+Some events have internal functions calls, that appear in the print format
+output. For example "tracefs/events/i915/g4x_wm/format" has:
+[source,c]
+--
+print fmt: "pipe %c, frame=%u, scanline=%u, wm %d/%d/%d, sr %s/%d/%d/%d, hpll %s/%d/%d/%d, fbc %s",
+ ((REC->pipe) + 'A'), REC->frame, REC->scanline, REC->primary,
+ REC->sprite, REC->cursor, yesno(REC->cxsr), REC->sr_plane,
+ REC->sr_cursor, REC->sr_fbc, yesno(REC->hpll), REC->hpll_plane,
+ REC->hpll_cursor, REC->hpll_fbc, yesno(REC->fbc)
+--
+Notice the call to function *yesno()* in the print arguments. In the kernel
+context, this function has the following implementation:
+[source,c]
+--
+static const char *yesno(int x)
+{
+ static const char *yes = "yes";
+ static const char *no = "no";
+
+ return x ? yes : no;
+}
+--
+The user space event parser has no idea how to handle this *yesno()* function.
+The *tep_register_print_function()* API can be used to register a user space
+helper function, mapped to the kernel's *yesno()*:
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+#include <trace-seq.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+static const char *yes_no_helper(int x)
+{
+ return x ? "yes" : "no";
+}
+...
+ if ( tep_register_print_function(tep,
+ yes_no_helper,
+ TEP_FUNC_ARG_STRING,
+ "yesno",
+ TEP_FUNC_ARG_INT,
+ TEP_FUNC_ARG_VOID) != 0) {
+ /* Failed to register yes_no_helper function */
+ }
+
+/*
+ Now, when the event parser encounters this yesno() function, it will know
+ how to handle it.
+*/
+...
+ if (tep_unregister_print_function(tep, yes_no_helper, "yesno") != 0) {

+Manage flags of trace event parser context.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+enum *tep_flag* {
+ _TEP_NSEC_OUTPUT_,
+ _TEP_DISABLE_SYS_PLUGINS_,

+};
+void *tep_set_flag*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, enum tep_flag _flag_);
+void *tep_clear_flag*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, enum tep_flag _flag_);
+bool *tep_test_flag*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, enum tep_flag _flag_);
+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Trace event parser context flags are defined in *enum tep_flag*:
+[verse]
+--
+_TEP_NSEC_OUTPUT_ - print event's timestamp in nano seconds, instead of micro seconds.
+_TEP_DISABLE_SYS_PLUGINS_ - disable plugins, located in system's plugin
+ directory. This directory is defined at library compile
+ time, and usually depends on library installation
+ prefix: (install_preffix)/lib/traceevent/plugins
+_TEP_DISABLE_PLUGINS_ - disable all library plugins:
+ - in system's plugin directory
+ - in directory, defined by the environment variable _TRACEEVENT_PLUGIN_DIR_
+ - in user's home directory, _~/.traceevent/plugins_
+--
+Note: plugin related flags must me set before calling *tep_load_plugins()* API.
+
+The *tep_set_flag()* function sets _flag_ to _tep_ context.
+
+The *tep_clear_flag()* function clears _flag_ from _tep_ context.
+
+The *tep_test_flag()* function tests if _flag_ is set to _tep_ context.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+*tep_test_flag()* function returns true if _flag_ is set, false otherwise.
+

+libtraceevent(3)
+================
+
+NAME
+----
+tep_strerror - Returns a string describing regular errno and tep error number.
+
+SYNOPSIS
+--------
+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+
+int *tep_strerror*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, enum tep_errno _errnum_, char pass:[*]_buf_, size_t _buflen_);
+
+--
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The *tep_strerror()* function converts tep error number into a human
+readable string.
+The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context. The _errnum_ is a regular
+errno, defined in errno.h, or a tep error number. The string, describing this
+error number is copied in the _buf_ argument. The _buflen_ argument is
+the size of the _buf_.
+
+It as a thread safe wrapper around strerror_r(). The library function has two
+different behaviors - POSIX and GNU specific. The *tep_strerror()* API always
+behaves as the POSIX version - the error string is copied in the user supplied
+buffer.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+The *tep_strerror()* function returns 0, if a valid _errnum_ is passed and the
+string is copied into _buf_. If _errnum_ is not a valid error number,
+-1 is returned and _buf_ is not modified.
+
+EXAMPLE
+-------
+[source,c]
+--
+#include <event-parse.h>
+...
+struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
+...
+char buf[32];
+char *pool = calloc(1, 128);
+if (tep == NULL) {
+ tep_strerror(tep, TEP_ERRNO__MEM_ALLOC_FAILED, buf, 32);
+ printf ("The pool is not initialized, %s", buf);

+--
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Trace sequences are used to allow a function to call several other functions
+to create a string of data to use.
+
+The *trace_seq_init()* function initializes the trace sequence _s_.
+
+The *trace_seq_destroy()* function destroys the trace sequence _s_ and frees
+all its resources that it had used.
+
+The *trace_seq_reset()* function re-initializes the trace sequence _s_. All
+characters already written in _s_ will be deleted.
+
+The *trace_seq_terminate()* function terminates the trace sequence _s_. It puts
+the null character pass:['\0'] at the end of the buffer.
+
+The *trace_seq_putc()* function puts a single character _c_ in the trace
+sequence _s_.
+
+The *trace_seq_puts()* function puts a NULL terminated string _str_ in the
+trace sequence _s_.
+
+The *trace_seq_printf()* function puts a formated string _fmt _with
+variable arguments _..._ in the trace sequence _s_.
+
+The *trace_seq_vprintf()* function puts a formated string _fmt _with
+list of arguments _args_ in the trace sequence _s_.
+
+The *trace_seq_do_printf()* function prints the buffer of trace sequence _s_ to
+the standard output stdout.
+
+The *trace_seq_do_fprintf()* function prints the buffer of trace sequence _s_
+to the given file _fp_.
+
+RETURN VALUE
+------------
+Both *trace_seq_putc()* and *trace_seq_puts()* functions return the number of
+characters put in the trace sequence, or 0 in case of an error
+
+Both *trace_seq_printf()* and *trace_seq_vprintf()* functions return 0 if the
+trace oversizes the buffer's free space, the number of characters printed, or
+a negative value in case of an error.
+
+Both *trace_seq_do_printf()* and *trace_seq_do_fprintf()* functions return the
+number of printed characters, or -1 in case of an error.
