       The tep_is_bigendian() gets the endianness of the machine, executing the function.

       The tep_is_local_bigendian() function gets the endianness of the local machine, saved in the tep handler.
       The tep argument is the trace event parser context. This API is a bit faster than tep_is_bigendian(), as
       it returns cached endianness of the local machine instead of checking it each time.

       The tep_set_local_bigendian() function sets the endianness of the local machine in the tep handler. The
       tep argument is trace event parser context. The endian argument is the endianness:

                   TEP_LITTLE_ENDIAN - the machine is little endian,
                   TEP_BIG_ENDIAN - the machine is big endian.

           #include <event-parse.h>
           ...
           struct tep_handle *tep = tep_alloc();
           ...
                   if (tep_is_bigendian())
                           tep_set_local_bigendian(tep, TEP_BIG_ENDIAN);
                   else
                           tep_set_local_bigendian(tep, TEP_LITTLE_ENDIAN);
           ...
                   if (tep_is_local_bigendian(tep))
                           printf("This machine you are running on is bigendian\n");
                   else
                           printf("This machine you are running on is little endian\n");

       The tep_is_bigendian() function returns non zero if the endianness of the machine, executing the code, is
       big endian and zero otherwise.

       The tep_is_local_bigendian() function returns true, if the endianness of the local machine, saved in the
       tep handler, is big endian, or false otherwise.
