Subject: [PATCH v3 14/15] tools/lib/traceevent: Change description of few APIs
Date: Wed, 28 Nov 2018 09:07:46 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181128090711.17792-15-tstoyanov@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20181128090711.17792-1-tstoyanov@vmware.com>

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() and
tep_set_page_size().
