At the beginning the logic was not clear to me, in particular "why is it doing this?", then I understood by having a look at the usage of `create_event()` but I forget to remove the FIXME. But still, it is not immediately obvious why we need this without reading how the function has been used. Answer to the question: we need it because when we call `create_event()` we pass the path to the filter file, and not the path to the event directory. In my opinion we should pass the path to the event directory, and from this we can build the event_list's paths. To me, it sounds more correct for a function named `create_event()`, rather than: - taking a path to a specific event file, - deduce the event directory, - build the path for the other event files, > > > + ret = asprintf(&p, "%s/enable", path); > > + if (ret < 0) > > > > die("Failed to allocate enable path for %s", path); > > > > - sprintf(p, "%s/enable", path); > > > > ret = stat(p, &st); > > if (ret >= 0) > > > > event->enable_file = p; > > > > @@ -2249,10 +2244,9 @@ create_event(struct buffer_instance *instance, char > > *path, struct event_list *ol> > > free(p); > > > > if (event->trigger) { > > > > - p = malloc(strlen(path) + strlen("/trigger") + 1); > > - if (!p) > > + ret = asprintf(&p, "%s/trigger", path); > > + if (ret < 0) > > > > die("Failed to allocate trigger path for %s", path); > > > > - sprintf(p, "%s/trigger", path); > > > > ret = stat(p, &st); > > if (ret > 0) > > > > die("trigger specified but not supported by this kernel"); > > > > @@ -2268,17 +2262,16 @@ static void make_sched_event(struct > > buffer_instance *instance,> > > { > > > > char *path; > > char *p; > > > > + int ret; > > > > /* Do nothing if the event already exists */ > > if (*event) > > > > return; > > > > - path = malloc(strlen(sched->filter_file) + strlen(sched_path) + 2); > > - if (!path) > > + ret = asprintf(&path, "%s", sched->filter_file); > > Now this part is not correct.

Do you want to send an updated patch, or do you > want me to fix the above? I can send an updated patch, but I do not know when (weeks). It is a super easy patch but I'm really busy and tired at the moment. Sorry :/ If you have time and you want to do it, please go ahead.
