NAME

6       tep_read_number_field - Reads a number from raw data.
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <event-parse.h>
10
11       int tep_read_number_field(struct tep_format_field *field, const void *data, unsigned long long *value);
12

DESCRIPTION

14       The tep_read_number_field() function reads the value of the field from
15       the raw data and stores it in the value. The function sets the value
16       according to the endianness of the raw data and the current machine and
17       stores it in value.
18

RETURN VALUE

20       The tep_read_number_field() function retunrs 0 in case of success, or
21       -1 in case of an error.
22

EXAMPLE

24           #include <event-parse.h>
25           ...
26           struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
27           ...
28           struct tep_event *event = tep_find_event_by_name(tep, "timer", "hrtimer_start");
29           ...
30           void process_record(struct tep_record *record)
31           {
32                   unsigned long long pid;
33                   struct tep_format_field *field_pid = tep_find_common_field(event, "common_pid");
34
35                   if (tep_read_number_field(field_pid, record->data, &pid) != 0) {
36                           /* Failed to get "common_pid" value */
37                   }
38           }
39           ...
