tracecmd_get_first_ts, tracecmd_add_ts_offset - Handle time stamps from a trace file.
#include <trace-cmd.h> unsigned long long tracecmd_get_first_ts(struct tracecmd_input *handle); void tracecmd_add_ts_offset(struct tracecmd_input *handle, long long offset);
This set of APIs can be used to read tracing data from a trace file opened with tracecmd_open()(3), tracecmd_open_fd()(3) or tracecmd_open_head()(3).
The tracecmd_get_first_ts() function returns the time stamp of the first record in the handle.
The tracecmd_add_ts_offset() function adds an offset to each of the records in the handle that represents a trace file. This is useful for associating two different tracing files by their offset (for example a trace file from a host and a trace file from a guest that were not synchronized when created).
The tracecmd_get_first_ts() function returns the timestamp of the first record in a trace file for the given handle.
