[PATCH v2 2/3] tracing: Add "(fault)" name injection to kernel probes

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Wed Oct 12 2022 - 06:45:35 EST


From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Have the specific functions for kernel probes that read strings to inject
the "(fault)" name directly. trace_probes.c does this too (for uprobes)
but as the code to read strings are going to be used by synthetic events
(and perhaps other utilities), it simplifies the code by making sure those
other uses do not need to implement the "(fault)" name injection as well.

Fixes: bd82631d7ccdc ("tracing: Add support for dynamic strings to synthetic events")
