A recently posted patch is fixing that up to be __string(region, NULL) See [1], with the actual assignment still happening in TP_fast_assign. Does that assign logic need to move to the TP_STRUCT__entry definition when you merge these changes? I'm not clear how much logic is able to be included, ie like 'C' style code in the TP_STRUCT__entry.
