It returns whether or not the string is safe. But it can have some\nfalse positives.\n\nFor instance, xe_bo_move() has:\n\n TP_printk(\"move_lacks_source:%s, migrate object %p [size %zu] from %s to %s device_id:%s\",\n __entry->move_lacks_source ? \"yes\" : \"no\", __entry->bo, __entry->size,\n xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry->old_placement],\n xe_mem_type_to_name[__entry->new_placement], __get_str(device_id))\n\nWhere the \"%s\" references into xe_mem_type_to_name[]. This is an array of\npointers that should be safe for the event to access.
