From fcd9db51df8e219e3a61b14e9b8c5ee67d39d37c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2021 23:42:58 -0400 Subject: tracing/probe: Have traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() take a const arg The two places that call traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() allocate a temporary buffer to copy the argv[i] into, because argv[i] is constant and the traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() will modify it to do the parsing. These two places allocate this buffer and then free it right after calling this function, leaving the onus of this allocation to the caller. As there's about to be a third user of this function that will have to do the same thing, instead of having the caller allocate the temporary buffer, simply move that allocation into the traceprobe_parse_probe_arg() itself, which will simplify the code of the callers.
