[v2,05/10] trace-cmd library: New API to inherit parameters from an existing trace file

Commit Message

Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) Nov. 11, 2021, 3:07 p.m. UTC

The new API initializes previously allocated output handler with
parameters from an input handler to a trace file.
 tracecmd_output_set_from_input()

+ * tracecmd_output_set_from_input - Inherit parameters from an existing trace file

+ *
+ * This API copies parameters from input handler @ihandle, associated with an existing trace file,
+ * to the output handler @handle, associated with file that is going to be created.
+ * These parameters are copied:
+ *  - tep handler
+ *  - page size
+ *  - file endian
+ *  - file version
+ *  - file compression protocol
+ * This API must be called before tracecmd_output_write_init().
+ *
+ * Returns 0 on success, or -1 if the output file handler is not allocated or not in expected state.
