Ok Arnaldo, Sure, I will check with updated branch

I observed same issue as updated here: 
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/10476A85-3F75-4C91-AB5B-E5B136F31297@linux.vnet.ibm.com/

Looks like TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE is not defined in header file of the system installed version.
whereas it is there in header file in tools/lib/traceevent

# grep TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE /usr/include/traceevent/event-parse.h
# grep TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE ../lib/traceevent/event-parse.h
	TEP_FIELD_IS_RELATIVE	= 256,


Thanks
Athira
