tep_data_type, tep_data_pid, tep_data_preempt_count, tep_data_flags - Extract common fields from a record.
#include <event-parse.h>
enum trace_flag_type {
TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_OFF,
TRACE_FLAG_IRQS_NOSUPPORT,
TRACE_FLAG_NEED_RESCHED,
TRACE_FLAG_HARDIRQ,

};
int tep_data_type(struct tep_handle *tep, struct tep_record *rec);
int tep_data_pid(struct tep_handle *tep, struct tep_record *rec);
int tep_data_preempt_count(struct tep_handle *tep, struct tep_record *rec);
int tep_data_flags(struct tep_handle *tep, struct tep_record *rec);
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:
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.
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.
