Subject: [PATCH 4/4] tracing: uprobe: eprobes: Allocate traceprobe_parse_context per probe
Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2025 23:30:14 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <175509541393.193596.16330324746701582114.stgit@devnote2> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <175509537667.193596.9139462012987606126.stgit@devnote2>
From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
Since traceprobe_parse_context is reusable among a probe arguments,
it is more efficient to allocate it outside of the loop for parsing
probe argument as kprobe and fprobe events do.
