Ftrace supports dynamic events, created by the user - kprobes, uprobes,
eprobes and synthetic events. There are two interfaces for managing
these events - new common "dynamic_events" file and event specific
"kprobe_events", "uprobe_events", "synthetic_events" files. The
configuration syntax for all dynamic events is almost the same.
To simplify support of dynamic events in the tracefs library, new
APIs are introduced. They handle both configuration interfaces -
the common "dynamic_events" file is preferred, if available.
On the old kernels, where this file is missing, the event
specific files are used. The new APIs can be used to create,
delete and get ftrace dynamic events from any type:

 enum tracefs_dynevent_type;
 tracefs_dynevent_create();
 tracefs_dynevent_destroy();
 tracefs_dynevent_destroy_all();
 tracefs_dynevent_free();
 tracefs_dynevent_list_free();
 tracefs_dynevent_get_all();

There is no public API for allocation of a new dynamic event, as that
logic is specific for each dynamic event type.

What if the user adds a name for the event?

	p:name system/event

?

I'm not sure this is what you want to do, as the above is dangerous. If we
have the following string:

  "p: system/event"

	event + strlen(event) = '\0'
	event + strlen(event) + 1 = out-of-bounds;

Note, strtok_r() does not need to find the delimiter if the token is the
last delimiter.

	char str[] = "first last";
	char *a, *b, *s;

	a = strtok_r(str, " ", &s);
	b = strtok_r(NULL, " ", &s);

Will result with: a = "first" and b = "last"

Actually, I'm curious to why we parse the prefix? We have it when it gets
called. Why not use it?

I'll add more about that in other emails.

BTW, there's no reason to have such a long field name for the function
pointer. Why not call it:

	int (*del)(...);
	int (*parse)(...);

?

It will make using it much easier and more readable.

OK, now looking at how this is used in this patch, I have a bit more
context. I replied before reading the rest of the patch, as this is
used to parse the actual file and not input.

This could definitely use some context. Especially function pointers in
structures. There should be some comment by the structure to explain
what the functions are for.

Ignore this. I see now that this isn't for user input, but how you
parse the dynamic event file, which has the format of:

 p:system/event ...

I was thinking this was user input not the content from the kernel.

I'm guessing address is something you always expect? Then the above
really should be:

	address = strtok_r(NULL, " ", &sav);
	if (!address)
		return -1;

	format = strtok_r(NULL, "", @sav);

where format will get the rest of the string (if there is any), or be
NULL if there's nothing left.

Again, please add spaces between error checks. It makes it a lot easier
to read.

What's the purpose of the above comment?

Does it affect this code somehow? prefix is being strdup() just like
everything else.

Can't format be NULL here?

Even though this is hidden, there should be a comment describing its
use. That's basically the rule for all functions that are not static
(and it's still good to have some comments about static functions).

	strlen(..) > 0 ?

Is the same as:

	strlen(..) ?

No need for the compare. Unless you expect there to be a negative
string length ;-)

Should the above be called get_all_types()?

That is, are we getting all types on the system or are we getting the "all" type?

Perhaps a more descriptive name would be: get_all_dynevents() ?

Note, you can shorten the above line with:

And shorten this one with:

			tmp = realloc(all_events, (all + count) * sizeof(*tmp));

And it still fits on one line.

Same here:

			memcpy(all_events + all, events, count * sizeof(*events));

In stead of doing another realloc, you should add + 1 in the above loop:

			tmp = realloc(all_events, (all + count + 1) * sizeof(*tmp));

And then have:

			all += count;

			all_events[all] = NULL;

Then you don't need this if block.

The above really needs to be a for loop:

	for (i = 0; all[i]; i++) {

Because that's exactly what it is.
