tracing: Fix synthetic event to accept unsigned modifier Fix synthetic event to accept unsigned modifier for its field type correctly. Currently, synthetic_events interface returns error for "unsigned" modifiers as below; # echo "myevent unsigned long var" >> synthetic_events sh: write error: Invalid argument This is because argv_split() breaks "unsigned long" into "unsigned" and "long", but parse_synth_field() doesn't expected it. With this fix, synthetic_events can handle the "unsigned long" correctly like as below; # echo "myevent unsigned long var" >> synthetic_events # cat synthetic_events myevent unsigned long var Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/153986832571.18251.8448135724590496531.stgit@devbox Cc: Shuah Khan <shuah@kernel.org> Cc: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: commit 4b147936fa50 ("tracing: Add support for 'synthetic' events") Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
