tools lib traceevent: Remove tep_data_event_from_type() API

2019-01-08T16:28:13Z

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, its API should be straightforward. After discussion with Steven Rostedt, we decided to remove the tep_data_event_from_type() API and to replace it with tep_find_event(), as it does the same.

tools lib traceevent: Rename tep_is_file_bigendian() to tep_file_bigendian()

2019-01-08T16:28:13Z

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, its API should be straightforward. After a discussion with Steven Rostedt, we decided to rename a few APIs, to have more intuitive names. This patch renames tep_is_file_bigendian() to tep_file_bigendian().

tools lib traceevent: Changed return logic of tep_register_event_handler() API

2019-01-08T16:28:13Z

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, its API should be straightforward. The tep_register_event_handler() functions returns -1 in case it successfully registers the new event handler. Such return code is used by the other library APIs in case of an error. To unify the return logic of tep_register_event_handler() with the other APIs, this patch introduces enum tep_reg_handler, which is used by this function as return value, to handle all possible successful return cases.

tools lib traceevent: Changed return logic of trace_seq_printf() and trace_seq_vprintf() APIs

2019-01-08T16:28:13Z

In order to make libtraceevent into a proper library, its API should be straightforward. The trace_seq_printf() and trace_seq_vprintf() APIs have inconsistent returned values with the other trace_seq_* APIs. This path changes the return logic of trace_seq_printf() and trace_seq_vprintf() to return the number of printed characters, as the other trace_seq_* related APIs.

tools lib traceevent: Rename struct cmdline to struct tep_cmdline

2019-01-08T16:28:13Z

In order to make libtraceevent a proper library, variables, data structures and functions should have a unique prefix to prevent name space conflicts. That prefix will be "tep_". This patch renames 'struct cmdline' to 'struct tep_cmdline'.

tools lib traceevent: Initialize host_bigendian at tep_handle allocation

2019-01-08T16:28:13Z

This patch initializes the host_bigendian member of the tep_handle structure with the byte order of the current host, when this handler is created - in tep_alloc() API. We need this in order to remove the tep_set_host_bigendian() API.

tools lib traceevent: Introduce new libtracevent API: tep_override_comm()

2019-01-08T16:28:13Z

This patch adds a new API of tracevent library: tep_override_comm() It registers a pid / command mapping. If a mapping with the same pid already exists, the entry is updated with the new command.

tools lib traceevent: Use LDFLAGS in the build commands

2018-12-18T15:23:57Z

So that the user can specify outside LDFLAGS values. Keeping the CFLAGS in there as well, so we don't break existing scripts.

tools lib traceevent: Fix processing of dereferenced args in bprintk events

2018-12-18T15:21:44Z

In the case that a bprintk event has a dereferenced pointer that is stored as a string, and there's more values to process (more args), the arg was not updated to point to the next arg after processing the dereferenced pointer, and it screwed up what was to be displayed.

tools lib traceevent: Fix diverse typos in comments

2018-12-17T17:56:34Z

Go over the tools/ files that are maintained in Arnaldo's tree and fix common typos: half of them were in comments, the other half in JSON files. No change in functionality intended. Committer notes: This was split from a larger patch as there are code that is, additionally, maintained outside the kernel tree, so to ease cherry picking and/or backporting, split this into multiple patches.
