Subject: perf probe: Fix event namelist to duplicate string
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e1d2017b24fb31602f1128e6a8b2afc54c9283cd;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

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.
