From deab6f55a2fe6fe044af61c9aad6a8e90cda6499 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josef Bacik Date: Tue, 24 Mar 2015 09:57:49 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] tools lib traceevent: Handle NULL comm name It is possible that a pid has no associated comm attached to it, although it can still be passed to pevent_register_comm(). But if comm is NULL, it will cause strdup() to segfault. To prevent this from happening, if comm is NULL use the default "<...>" name for the pid.
