From 32eb3d0d09943ab9dcc01fb8d2619b64e965992c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Red Hat)" Date: Wed, 1 Apr 2015 15:55:36 -0400 Subject: tracing/samples: Update the trace-event-sample.h with TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() Document the use of TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM() by adding enums to the trace-event-sample.h and using this macro to convert them in the format files. Also update the comments and sho the use of __print_symbolic() and __print_flags() as well as adding comments abount __print_array().
