Subject: [for-next][PATCH 04/23] tracing/ipv4/ipv6: Use static array for name field in fib*_lookup_table event

From: Steven Rostedt <[email-masked]>
Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2022 12:43:00 -0400

From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <[email-masked]>

The fib_lookup_table and fib6_lookup_table events declare name as a
dynamic_array, but also give it a fixed size, which defeats the purpose of
the dynamic array, especially since the dynamic array also includes meta
data in the event to specify its size.

Since the size of the name is at most 16 bytes (defined by IFNAMSIZ),
it is not worth spending the effort to determine the size of the string.

Just use a fixed size array and copy into it. This will save 4 bytes that
are used for the meta data that saves the size and position of a dynamic
array, and even slightly speed up the event processing.
