tools lib traceevent: Change description of few APIs
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() - tep_set_page_size() Signed-off-by: Tzvetomir Stoyanov <tstoyanov@vmware.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@redhat.com> Cc: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Link: http://lore.kernel.org/linux-trace-devel/20190325145017.30246-2-tstoyanov@vmware.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190401164343.396759247@goodmis.org Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
