Concerning structure, we can use the format file in debugfs which currently describes the fields of a tracepoint: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/../../format and expand those to generic kernel events. Userspace parses the format and knows exactly at what data it is looking at. Also, the idea is to move that events hierarchy into sysfs so it will be present on every system.
