I'll try and continue later, but if you guys can take a look...
The first call in that loop:
while ((event = trace_find_next_event(pevent, event)))
works and the event is valid, one of the sched: tracepoints, but then
the next call returns this:
struct tep_event *trace_find_next_event(struct tep_handle *pevent,
struct tep_event *event)
{
static int idx;
int events_count;
struct tep_event *all_events;
all_events = tep_get_first_event(pevent);
events_count = tep_get_events_count(pevent);
if (!pevent || !all_events || events_count < 1)
return NULL;
if (!event) {
idx = 0;
return all_events;
}
if (idx < events_count && event == (all_events + idx)) {
idx++;
if (idx == events_count)
return NULL;
return (all_events + idx);
}
for (idx = 1; idx < events_count; idx++) {
if (event == (all_events + (idx - 1)))
return (all_events + idx);
}
return NULL;
}
Oh, static int idx, oops, anyway, the all_events + idx returned for the
second call to trace_find_next_event() fails, in a hurry now, will get
back to this later.

tools lib traceevent, perf tools: Move struct tep_handler definition in a
local header file
As traceevent is going to be transferred into a proper library,
its local data should be protected from the library users.
This patch encapsulates struct tep_handler into a local header,
not visible outside of the library. It implements also a bunch
of new APIs, which library users can use to access tep_handler members.
