tep_find_common_field, tep_find_field, tep_find_any_field - Search for a field in an event.
#include <event-parse.h> struct tep_format_field *tep_find_common_field(struct tep_event *event, const char *name); struct tep_format_field *tep_find_field(struct tep_event_ormat *event, const char *name); struct tep_format_field *tep_find_any_field(struct tep_event *event, const char *name);
These functions search for a field with given name in an event. The field returned can be used to find the field content from within a data record. The tep_find_common_field() function searches for a common field with name in the event. The tep_find_field() function searches for an event specific field with name in the event. The tep_find_any_field() function searches for any field with name in the event.
The tep_find_common_field(), tep_find_field() and _tep_find_any_field() functions return a pointer to the found field, or NULL in case there is no field with the requested name.
#include <event-parse.h> ... void get_htimer_info(struct tep_handle *tep, struct tep_record *record) { struct tep_format_field *field; struct tep_event *event; long long softexpires; int mode; int pid; event = tep_find_event_by_name(tep, "timer", "hrtimer_start"); field = tep_find_common_field(event, "common_pid"); if (field == NULL) { /* Cannot find "common_pid" field in the event */ } else { /* Get pid from the data record */ pid = tep_read_number(tep, record->data + field->offset, field->size); } field = tep_find_field(event, "softexpires"); if (field == NULL) { /* Cannot find "softexpires" event specific field in the event */ } else { /* Get softexpires parameter from the data record */ softexpires = tep_read_number(tep, record->data + field->offset, field->size); } field = tep_find_any_field(event, "mode"); if (field == NULL) { /* Cannot find "mode" field in the event */ } else { /* Get mode parameter from the data record */ mode = tep_read_number(tep, record->data + field->offset, field->size); } } ...
event-parse.h Header file to include in order to have access to the library APIs. -ltraceevent Linker switch to add when building a program that uses the library.
