DESCRIPTION
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
Filters can be attached to traced events. They can be used to filter out various
|
||||
events when outputting them. Each event can be filtered based on its parameters,
|
||||
described in the event's format file. This set of functions can be used to
|
||||
create, delete, modify and attach event filters.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_alloc()_ function creates a new event filter. The _tep_ argument
|
||||
is the trace event parser context.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_free()_ function frees an event filter and all resources that it
|
||||
had used.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_reset()_ function removes all rules from an event filter and
|
||||
resets it.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_add_filter_str()_ function adds a new rule to the _filter_. The
|
||||
_filter_str_ argument is the filter string, that contains the rule.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_event_filtered()_ function checks if the event with _event_id_ has
|
||||
_filter_.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_remove_event()_ function removes a _filter_ for an event with
|
||||
_event_id_.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_match()_ function tests if a _record_ matches given _filter_.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_copy()_ function copies a _source_ filter into a _dest_ filter.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_compare()_ function compares two filers - _filter1_ and _filter2_.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_make_string()_ function constructs a string, displaying
|
||||
the _filter_ contents for given _event_id_.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_strerror()_ function copies the _filter_ error buffer into the
|
||||
given _buf_ with the size _buflen_. If the error buffer is empty, in the _buf_
|
||||
is copied a string, describing the error _err_.
|
||||
|
||||
RETURN VALUE
|
||||
------------
|
||||
The _tep_filter_alloc()_ function returns a pointer to the newly created event
|
||||
filter, or NULL in case of an error.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_add_filter_str()_ function returns 0 if the rule was
|
||||
successfully added or a negative error code. Use _tep_filter_strerror()_ to see
|
||||
actual error message in case of an error.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_event_filtered()_ function returns 1 if the filter is found for given
|
||||
event, or 0 otherwise.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_remove_event()_ function returns 1 if the vent was removed, or
|
||||
0 if the event was not found.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_match()_ function returns _tep_errno_, according to the result:
|
||||
[verse]
|
||||
--
|
||||
_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__FILTER_MATCH]_ - filter found for event, the record matches.
|
||||
_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__FILTER_MISS]_ - filter found for event, the record does not match.
|
||||
_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__FILTER_NOT_FOUND]_ - no filter found for record's event.
|
||||
_pass:[TEP_ERRNO__NO_FILTER]_ - no rules in the filter.
|
||||
--
|
||||
or any other _tep_errno_, if an error occurred during the test.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_copy()_ function returns 0 on success or -1 if not all rules
|
||||
were copied.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_compare()_ function returns 1 if the two filters hold the same
|
||||
content, or 0 if they do not.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_make_string()_ function returns a string, which must be freed
|
||||
with free(), or NULL in case of an error.
|
||||
|
||||
The _tep_filter_strerror()_ function returns 0 if message was filled
|
||||
successfully, or -1 in case of an error.
