The event classes udc_log_ep and udc_log_req both declare:
__dynamic_array(char, name, UDC_TRACE_STR_MAX)
Which will reserve UDC_TRACE_STR_MAX bytes on the ring buffer for the
event to write in name. It then uses snprintf() to write into that space.
Assuming that the string being copied is nul terminated, it is better to
just use the __string() helper. That way only the size of the string is
saved into the ring buffer and not the max size (yes, the entire
UDC_TRACE_STR_MAX is used in the trace event, and anything not used is
just junk in the ring buffer). Worse, there's also meta data saved into
the event that denotes where the string is stored in the event and also
saves its size, which is always going to be UDC_TRACE_STR_MAX.
Convert both to use the __string() and __assign_str() helpers that are for
this kind of use case.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
