[PATCH] trace-cmd library: Add tracecmd_get_tsc2nsec() API

[PATCH] trace-cmd library: Add tracecmd_get_tsc2nsec() API

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Add tracecmd_get_tsc2nsec() to be able to extract the multiplier, shift
and offset used to calculate the nanoseconds from the raw timestamp.

 DESCRIPTION
@@ -28,11 +29,23 @@ in the _handle_ that represents a trace file. This is useful for associating two
 different tracing files by their offset (for example a trace file from a host
 and a trace file from a guest that were not synchronized when created).
 
+The *tracecmd_get_tsc2nsec* returns the calculation values that convert the
+raw timestamp into nanoseconds. The parameters are pointers to the storage to save
+the values, or NULL to ignore them. The multiplier will be saved in _mult_, the
+shift value will be saved in _shift_, and the offset value will be saved in
+_offset_, if the corresponding parameters are not NULL.
+
 RETURN VALUE
 ------------
 The *tracecmd_get_first_ts()* function returns the timestamp of the first
 record in a trace file for the given _handle_.
 
+The *tracecmd_get_tsc2nsec*() returns 0 if the tracing clock supports the
+shift values and -1 otherwise. Note, that if the trace file has the TSC2NSEC
+option, the values returned in the parameters may still be valid even if the
+function itself returns -1. The return value only notes if the values will
+be used in the calculations of the given clock.
