APIs descriptions should describe the purpose of the function, its parameters and return value. While working on man pages implementation, I noticed mismatches in the descriptions of few APIs. This patch changes the description of these APIs, making them consistent with the man pages: - tep_print_num_field() - tep_print_func_field() - tep_get_header_page_size() - tep_get_long_size() - tep_set_long_size() - tep_get_page_size() - tep_set_page_size() Signed-off-by: Tzvetomir Stoyanov <tstoyanov@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@xxxxxxxxxx> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-devel/20190325145017.30246-2-tstoyanov@xxxxxxxxxx Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190401164343.396759247@xxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx> --- lib/traceevent/event-parse-api.c | 16 ++++++++-------- lib/traceevent/event-parse.c | 6 ++++-- 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/traceevent/event-parse-api.c b/lib/traceevent/event-parse-api.c index afafbc8..2c70375 100644 --- a/lib/traceevent/event-parse-api.c +++ b/lib/traceevent/event-parse-api.c @@ -196,10 +196,10 @@ void tep_set_cpus(struct tep_handle *pevent, int cpus) } /** - * tep_get_long_size - get the size of a long integer on the current machine + * tep_get_long_size - get the size of a long integer on the traced machine * @pevent: a handle to the tep_handle * - * This returns the size of a long integer on the current machine + * This returns the size of a long integer on the traced machine * If @pevent is NULL, 0 is returned. */ int tep_get_long_size(struct tep_handle *pevent) @@ -210,11 +210,11 @@ int tep_get_long_size(struct tep_handle *pevent) } /** - * tep_set_long_size - set the size of a long integer on the current machine + * tep_set_long_size - set the size of a long integer on the traced machine * @pevent: a handle to the tep_handle * @size: size, in bytes, of a long integer * - * This sets the size of a long integer on the current machine + * This sets the size of a long integer on the traced machine */ void tep_set_long_size(struct tep_handle *pevent, int long_size) { @@ -223,10 +223,10 @@ void tep_set_long_size(struct tep_handle *pevent, int long_size) } /** - * tep_get_page_size - get the size of a memory page on the current machine + * tep_get_page_size - get the size of a memory page on the traced machine * @pevent: a handle to the tep_handle * - * This returns the size of a memory page on the current machine + * This returns the size of a memory page on the traced machine * If @pevent is NULL, 0 is returned. */ int tep_get_page_size(struct tep_handle *pevent) @@ -237,11 +237,11 @@ int tep_get_page_size(struct tep_handle *pevent) } /** - * tep_set_page_size - set the size of a memory page on the current machine + * tep_set_page_size - set the size of a memory page on the traced machine * @pevent: a handle to the tep_handle * @_page_size: size of a memory page, in bytes * - * This sets the size of a memory page on the current machine + * This sets the size of a memory page on the traced machine */ void tep_set_page_size(struct tep_handle *pevent, int _page_size) { diff --git a/lib/traceevent/event-parse.c b/lib/traceevent/event-parse.c index 1c52747..a17f4f8 100644 --- a/lib/traceevent/event-parse.c +++ b/lib/traceevent/event-parse.c @@ -6453,7 +6453,8 @@ int tep_get_any_field_val(struct trace_seq *s, struct tep_event *event, * @record: The record with the field name. * @err: print default error if failed. * - * Returns: 0 on success, -1 field not found, or 1 if buffer is full. + * Returns positive value on success, negative in case of an error, + * or 0 if buffer is full. */ int tep_print_num_field(struct trace_seq *s, const char *fmt, struct tep_event *event, const char *name, @@ -6485,7 +6486,8 @@ int tep_print_num_field(struct trace_seq *s, const char *fmt, * @record: The record with the field name. * @err: print default error if failed. * - * Returns: 0 on success, -1 field not found, or 1 if buffer is full. + * Returns positive value on success, negative in case of an error, + * or 0 if buffer is full. */ int tep_print_func_field(struct trace_seq *s, const char *fmt, struct tep_event *event, const char *name, -- 2.20.1
