LIBTRACEEVENT(3) libtraceevent Manual LIBTRACEEVENT(3)
tep_find_event, tep_find_event_by_name, tep_find_event_by_record,
tep_record_is_event - Find events by given key.
#include <event-parse.h>
struct tep_event *tep_find_event(struct tep_handle *tep, int id);
struct tep_event *tep_find_event_by_name(struct tep_handle *tep, const char *sys, const char *name);
struct tep_event *tep_find_event_by_record(struct tep_handle *tep, struct tep_record *record);
bool tep_record_is_event(struct tep_record *record, struct tep_event *event);
This set of functions can be used to search for an event, based
on a given criteria. All functions require a pointer to a tep,
trace event parser context.
The tep_find_event() function searches for an event by given
event id. The event ID is assigned dynamically and can be viewed
in event’s format file, "ID" field.
The tep_find_event_by_name() function searches for an event by
given event name, under the system sys. If the sys is NULL (not
specified), the first event with name is returned.
The tep_find_event_by_record() function searches for an event
from a given record.
The tep_record_is_event() function tests if the given record is
of the type of the event. This is normally used to know if the
record being processed is of an event where further processing
should be done.
All these functions except tep_record_is_event() return a pointer
to the found event, or NULL if there is no such event.
#include <event-parse.h>

struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
...
struct tep_event *event;
event = tep_find_event(tep, 1857);
if (event == NULL) {
/* There is no event with ID 1857 */
}
event = tep_find_event_by_name(tep, "kvm", "kvm_exit");
if (event == NULL) {
/* There is no kvm_exit event, from kvm system */
}
void event_from_record(struct tep_record *record)
{
struct tep_event *event = tep_find_event_by_record(tep, record);
if (event == NULL) {
/* There is no event from given record */
}
}
