I'm concerned with that string you are passing in.

This one too.

%s is dereferencing a pointer, which works fine when reading the ASCII
translated trace files (/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace and friends).
But it breaks when we use trace-cmd or perf. Because they record the
binary data and they do not have access to memory inside the kernel.

What I would recommend is in pdc.h have:

#define PDC_ENTRY		1
#define PDC_TYPE_CONFIG		2

Then have the tracepoints do instead of:

	trace_irq_pin_config("enable", ...);
	trace_irq_pin_config("type_config", ...);

Have them do:

	trace_irq_pin_config(PDC_ENTRY, ...);
	trace_irq_pin_config(PDC_TYPE_CONFIG, ...);

And then have:

	TP_PROTO(u32 func, ...)

	TP_STRUCT__entry(
		__field(u32, func)
		[...]

	TP_fast_assign(
		__entry->func = func;
		[...]

	TP_printk("%s hwirq...",
		print_symbolic(__entry->func,
				{ PDC_ENTRY, "entry" },
				{ PDC_TYPE_CONFIG, "type_config" }),
		[...]

And you will get the same effect, with trace-cmd and perf still working
as expected.
