Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 3/7] perf/sdt: Directly record SDT events with 'perf
 record'

Hi Ravi,

(I avoided to review parser part since it may go to yacc in next version)

Does --event option NOT requires argument without this patch?
If it should be changed to use OPT_CALLBACK_ARG(), would it be
better merge this part to previous patch?

Don't we need to return error code for this case?

strfilter__or() can fail here.

Here too, if it is ignored silently by design, please comment it here.

Well, strbuf can make this simpler as below ;-)

	struct strbuf buf = STRBUF_INIT;

	if (strbuf_addf(&buf, "%s:%s", tev->group, tev->event))
		goto error;

	tmp->name = strbuf_detach(&buf);

error:
	free(tmp);

	return -ENOMEM;
