The trace_kprobe part looks good to me.
But sorry, I mislead you. I meant using an existing error code as a metaphor.
EINVAL is used everywhere, so choose another error code, e.g. EADDRNOTAVAIL.

Also, can you add this check in __trace_kprobe_create()?
I think right before below code, at that point, 'symbol' has the symbol name.

        trace_probe_log_set_index(0);
        if (event) {
                ret = traceprobe_parse_event_name(&event, &group, gbuf,
                                                  event - argv[0]);
                if (ret)
                        goto parse_error;
        }


Thank you,
