__pmParseDebug, __pmSetDebugBits - manipulate old-style PCP debugging control bit-fields

#include<pcp/pmapi.h>#include<pcp/deprecated.h>int__pmParseDebug(constchar*spec);void__pmSetDebugBits(intvalue);cc...-lpcp

       These  routine  have  been  deprecated and may be removed in a future Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) release.
       Please refer to pmSetDebug(3) and pmClearDebug(3) for replacement functionality.

       __pmParseDebug parses spec assuming it to be a comma separated list of PCP debug flags.

       Each flag may be specified  as  an  integer  or  the  trailing  portion  of  the  symbolic  name  of  the
       corresponding flag as reported by pmdbg(1).  Symbolic names are stripped of the ``DBG_TRACE_'' prefix and
       may appear in either case.

       As  a  special case, the values ``-1'' and ``ALL'' are treated as synonyms for turning on all bits except
       the sign bit in the result, i.e. INT_MAX from <limits.h>.

       For example the debug option fetch is defined in the output from pmdbg(3) with the -L option and  may  be
       specified in spec as 2, FETCH or fetch.

       __pmSetDebugBits  may  be used to set the bit-fields directly using the encoding in value.  The effect is
       additive, so consecutive calls to __pmSetDebugBits will set the conjunction of  the  bits  in  the  value
       arguments.  To clear the bit-fields, see pmClearDebug(3).

       If successful, __pmParseDebug returns the value computed by the bit-wise ``or'' of each flag in the spec,
       suitable for assigning to the global debug trace control variable pmDebug.  Otherwise the return value is
       less than 0 to indicate a parsing error.
