36.Sh SYNOPSIS
37.In sysdecode.h
38.Ft void
39.Fn sysdecode_kevent_fflags "FILE *fp" "short filter" "int fflags" "int base"
40.Ft bool
41.Fn sysdecode_kevent_flags "FILE *fp" "int flags" "int *rem"
42.Ft const char *
43.Fn sysdecode_kevent_filter "int filter"
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45These functions provide text descriptions of
46.Vt struct kevent
47fields.
48.Pp
49The
50.Fn sysdecode_kevent_fflags
51function outputs a text description of the
52.Fa fflags
53member of a
54.Vt struct kevent
55to the stream
56.Fa fp .
57For the
58.Dv EVFILT_READ ,
59.Dv EVFILT_WRITE ,
60.Dv EVFILT_VNODE ,
61.Dv EVFILT_PROC ,
62.Dv EVFILT_PROCDESC ,
63.Dv EVFILT_TIMER ,
64and
65.Dv EVFILT_USER
66filters,
67.Fn sysdecode_kevent_fflags
68outputs a bitmask of filter-specific
69.Dv NOTE_*
70flags as documented in
71.Xr kevent 2 .
72For other values of
73.Fa filter ,
74the value of
75.Fa fflags
76is output in the indicated
77.Fa base
78.Pq one of 8, 10, or 16 .
79.Pp
80The
81.Fn sysdecode_kevent_filter
82function returns a text description of the
83.Fa filter
84member of a
85.Vt struct kevent .
86.Dv NULL
87is returned if the
88.Fa filter
89value is unknown.
90.Pp
91The
92.Fn sysdecode_kevent_flags
93function outputs a text description of the
94.Fa flags
95member of a
96.Vt struct kevent
97to the stream
98.Fa fp .
99This function uses the same calling convention and formatting as the other
100functions described in
101.Xr sysdecode_mask 3 .
102.Sh RETURN VALUES
103The
104.Nm sysdecode_kevent_filter
105function returns the name of a filter or
106.Dv NULL if the filter value is unknown.
107.Pp
108The
109.Nm sysdecode_kevent_flags
110function returns
111.Dv true
112if any flags in the
113.Fa flags
114field were decoded and
115.Dv false
116if no flags were decoded.
