[PATCH 2/3] tools lib traceevent: Get rid of die() from pevent_register_event_handler

From: Namhyung Kim
Date: Thu Sep 06 2012 - 22:57:26 EST


From: Namhyung Kim <namhyung.kim@xxxxxxx>

If memory allocation for handler fails, return gracefully instead of
calling die(). Note that casts to void * are needed because gcc
complained about discarding 'const' qualifier during implicit argument
cast.
