Hi,
This patchset adds support for dynamic strings for synthetic events, as requested by Axel Rasmussen.
Actually, the first two patches should be applied in any case - the first just changes the current max string length and the second fixes a bug I found while testing.
It works fine for my simple test cases, but I still need to do a lot more testing, especially of the in-kernel API parts, which don't affect Axel's use case.
Anyway, Axel, please try it out and send me your Tested-by: if it works for you, and your broken testcase(s) if it doesn't. ;-)
Thanks,
Tom
