Is this the same issue noted in this thread? [for-next][PATCH 2/2] tracing: Use temp buffer when filtering events https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/f16b14066317f6a926b6636df6974966@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ It seems like we should still try to get that fixed somehow, even if the below change is fine on its own (it probably doesn't make sense to such a large amount of data via tracepoints). It would be unfortunate for next poor soul to hit the same issues, just because they wanted to dump a few KB.
