Switch output to using a strbuf so the storage can be resized.
Add a maximum size argument to avoid too much output that may happen for
uncore events.
Rename as scnprintf is no longer used.
Committer testing:
With the patch applied:
root@number:~# perf probe -x ~/bin/perf evlist__format_evsels
Added new event:
probe_perf:evlist_format_evsels (on evlist__format_evsels in /home/acme/bin/perf)
You can now use it in all perf tools, such as:
perf record -e probe_perf:evlist_format_evsels -aR sleep 1
root@number:~# perf probe -l
probe_perf:evlist_format_evsels (on evlist__format_evsels@util/evlist.c in /home/acme/bin/perf)
root@number:~# perf trace -e probe_perf:*/max-stack=10/ perf record -e cycles,instructions,cache-misses /tmp/bla

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 reStructuredText 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.
