Description

When processing event records, if pmunpackeventrecords(3) is used to unpack event records from a metric within a pmResult structure with a value of type PM_TYPE_EVENT then the structure returned from pmunpackeventrecords(3) is a NULL pointer terminated array of pointers to pmResult structures, one for each event record.

pmFreeEventResult is a convenience method that frees all of the pmResult structures and the array of pointers (rset).
