From e1d2017b24fb31602f1128e6a8b2afc54c9283cd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Mon, 7 Dec 2009 12:00:46 -0500 Subject: perf probe: Fix event namelist to duplicate string Fix event namelist to duplicate string. Without duplicating, adding multiple probes causes stack overwrite bug, because it reuses a buffer on stack while the buffer is already added in the namelist. String duplication solves this bug because only contents of the buffer is copied to the namelist.
