       tep_event_common_fields, tep_event_fields - Get a list of fields
       for an event.
       #include <event-parse.h>
       struct tep_format_field **tep_event_common_fields(struct tep_event *event);
       struct tep_format_field **tep_event_fields(struct tep_event *event);
       The tep_event_common_fields() function returns an array of
       pointers to common fields for the event. The array is allocated in
       the function and must be freed by free(). The last element of the
       array is NULL.
       The tep_event_fields() function returns an array of pointers to
       event specific fields for the event. The array is allocated in the
       function and must be freed by free(). The last element of the
       array is NULL.
       Both tep_event_common_fields() and tep_event_fields() functions
       return an array of pointers to tep_format_field structures in case
       of success, or NULL in case of an error.
