SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
--
*#include <event-parse.h>*
int *tep_get_page_size*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_);
void *tep_set_page_size*(struct tep_handle pass:[*]_tep_, int _page_size_);

DESCRIPTION
-----------
The _tep_get_page_size()_ function returns the size of a memory page on
the machine, where the trace is generated. The _tep_ argument is trace
event parser context.
The _tep_set_page_size()_ function stores in the _tep_ context the size of a
memory page on the machine, where the trace is generated.
The _tep_ argument is trace event parser context.
The _page_size_ argument is the size of a memory page, in bytes.
RETURN VALUE
------------
The _tep_get_page_size()_ function returns size of the memory page, in bytes.
EXAMPLE
-------
[source,c]
--
#include <unistd.h>
#include <event-parse.h>
...
struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
...
int page_size = getpagesize();
tep_set_page_size(tep, page_size);
printf("The page size for this machine is %d\n", tep_get_page_size(tep));
