tep_set_flag - Man Page

#include <event-parse.h>

enum tep_flag {
        TEP_NSEC_OUTPUT,
        TEP_DISABLE_SYS_PLUGINS,
        TEP_DISABLE_PLUGINS
};
void tep_set_flag(struct tep_handle *tep, enum tep_flag flag);
void tep_clear_flag(struct tep_handle *tep, enum tep_flag flag);
bool tep_test_flag(struct tep_handle *tep, enum tep_flag flag);

Trace event parser context flags are defined in enum tep_flag:

TEP_NSEC_OUTPUT - print event’s timestamp in nano seconds, instead of micro seconds.
TEP_DISABLE_SYS_PLUGINS - disable plugins, located in system’s plugin
                        directory. This directory is defined at library compile
                        time, and usually depends on library installation
                        prefix: (install_preffix)/lib/traceevent/plugins
TEP_DISABLE_PLUGINS - disable all library plugins:
                        - in system’s plugin directory
                        - in directory, defined by the environment variable TRACEEVENT_PLUGIN_DIR
                        - in user’s home directory, ~/.traceevent/plugins

Note: plugin related flags must me set before calling tep_load_plugins() API.

The tep_set_flag() function sets flag to tep context.

The tep_clear_flag() function clears flag from tep context.

The tep_test_flag() function tests if flag is set to tep context.

tep_test_flag() function returns true if flag is set, false otherwise.
