      perf tools: Stop using 'self' in strlist · d8639f06
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo authored
      As suggested by tglx, 'self' should be replaced by something that is
      more useful.

      tools lib traceevent: Handle dynamic array's element size properly · e23c1a55
      Jiri Olsa authored
      Fixing the dynamic array format field parsing.
      
      Currently the event_read_fields function could segfault while parsing
      dynamic array other than string type. The reason is the event->pevent
      does not need to be set and gets dereferenced unconditionaly.
      
      Also adding proper initialization of field->elementsize based on the
      parsed dynamic type.
