NAME
----
tep_get_any_field_val, tep_get_common_field_val, tep_get_field_val,
tep_get_field_raw - Get value of a field.
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
--
*#include <event-parse.h>*
*#include <trace-seq.h>*
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_);
int *tep_get_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_);
void pass:[*]*tep_get_field_raw*(struct trace_seq pass:[*]_s_, struct tep_event pass:[*]_event_, const char pass:[*]_name_, struct tep_record pass:[*]_record_, int pass:[*]_len_, 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");
...
void process_record(struct tep_record *record)
{
int len;
char *comm;
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) {
/* Got the value of pid specific field */
}
comm = tep_get_field_raw(NULL, event, "comm", record, &len, 0);
if (comm != NULL) {
/* Got a pointer to the comm event specific field */
}
}
}

*event-parse.h*
Header file to include in order to have access to the library APIs.
*trace-seq.h*
Header file to include in order to have access to trace sequences
related APIs. Trace sequences are used to allow a function to call
several other functions to create a string of data to use.
