posix_trace_eventset_fill Subroutine

Purpose

Fills in a trace event type set.

Library

Posix Trace Library (libposixtrace.a)

Syntax

#include <trace.h>

int posix_trace_eventset_fill(set, what)
trace_event_set_t *set;
int what;

Description

This subroutine manipulates sets of trace event types. It operates on data objects addressable by the application, not on the current trace event filter of any trace stream.

The posix_trace_eventset_fill subroutine initializes the trace event type set pointed to by the set parameter. The value of the what parameter consists of one of the following values, as defined in the trace.h header file:

Item	Description
POSIX_TRACE_WOPID_EVENTS	All the system trace event types that are independent of process are included in the set.
POSIX_TRACE_SYSTEM_EVENTS	All the system trace event types are included in the set.
POSIX_TRACE_ALL_EVENTS	All trace event types that are defined, both system and user, are included in the set.

Applications call either the posix_trace_eventset_empty or posix_trace_eventset_fill subroutine at least once for each object of the trace_event_set_t type before further use of that object. If an object is not initialized in this way, but is supplied as a parameter to any of the posix_trace_eventset_add, posix_trace_eventset_del, or posix_trace_eventset_ismember subroutines, the results are not defined.

Parameters

Item	Description
set	Specifies the set of trace event types.
what	The what parameter contains one of the following values: POSIX_TRACE_WOPID_EVENTS All the system trace event types that are independent of process are included in the set. POSIX_TRACE_SYSTEM_EVENTS All the system trace event types are included in the set. POSIX_TRACE_ALL_EVENTS All trace event types that are defined, both system and user, are included in the set.

Return Values

Upon successful completion, this subroutine returns a value of zero. Otherwise, it returns the corresponding error number.

Errors

This subroutine fails if the following value is returned:

Item	Description
EINVAL	The value of one of the parameters is not valid.
