[v2,14/14] tools/lib/traceevent: Change description of few APIs

Commit Message

Tzvetomir Stoyanov Nov. 27, 2018, 3:41 p.m. UTC

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().
