From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Running the following commands was broken:

  # cd /sys/kernel/tracing
  # echo "filename.ustring ~ \"/proc*\"" > events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/filter
  # echo 1 > events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/enable
  # ls /proc/$$/maps
  # cat trace

And would produce nothing when it should have produced something like:

      ls-1192    [007] .....  8169.828333: sys_openat(dfd: ffffffffffffff9c, filename: 7efc18359904, flags: 80000, mode: 0)

Add a test to check this case so that it will be caught if it breaks
again.

Hi Shuah,

Sorry, I didn't copy the comment from v1 to v2, but it still applies:

    Shuah, I'm Cc'ing you on this for your information, but I'll take it
    through my tree as it will be attached with the fix, as it will fail
    without it.

It's already been accepted.

Thanks,

-- Steve
