Commit Message

Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) Sept. 29, 2020, 5:36 p.m. UTC
Add a new libtraceevent man page with documentation of these debug APIs:
 	 tep_print_printk
 	 tep_print_funcs
	 tep_set_test_filters
	 tep_plugin_print_options

Did you mean to add that space in the middle of "sched"? ;-)

Other than that, it looks good to me.

+================

+NAME

+tep_print_printk, tep_print_funcs, tep_set_test_filters, tep_plugin_print_options -
+Print libtraceevent internal information.

+SYNOPSIS

+[verse]
+--
+*#include <event-parse.h>*
+*#include <trace-seq.h>*
+
+void *tep_print_printk*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]tep);

+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+The _tep_print_printk()_ function prints the printk string formats that were
+stored for this tracing session. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+
+The _tep_print_funcs()_ function prints the stored function name to address mapping
+for this tracing session. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+
+The _tep_set_test_filters()_ function sets a flag to test a filter string. If this
+flag is set, when _tep_filter_add_filter_str()_ API as called, it will print the filter
+string instead of adding it. The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
+The _test_filters_ argument is the test flag that will be set.
+
+The _tep_plugin_print_options()_ function writes a list of the registered plugin options
+into _s_.
