Things like:
# grep __data_loc /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_process_exec/format
field:__data_loc char[] filename; offset:8; size:4; signed:1;
#
That, at that offset (8) and with that size(8) have an integer that
contains the real length and offset for the contents of that array.
Now this works:
# perf trace --max-events 1 -e sched:*exec -a
0.000 sed/19441 sched:sched_process_exec(filename: "/usr/bin/sync", pid: 19441 (sync), old_pid: 19441 (sync))
#
As when using the libtraceevent based beautifier:
# perf trace --libtraceevent --max-events 1 -e sched:*exec -a
0.000 sync/19463 sched:sched_process_exec(filename=/usr/bin/sync pid=19463 old_pid=19463)
#
I.e. that 'filename' is implemented as a dynamic char array.

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.
