--- Comment #5 from Mark Johnston <markj@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Jan Beich from comment #4)
Yes. Sorry, I've just been very busy with work.

I've spent more time looking at the code, and I think raising
DTRACE_FUNCNAMELEN
isn't a bad way to address the problem. I said in comment 3 that a buffer of
size DTRACE_FUNCNAMELEN is created for every single probe, but this isn't
right. It's only used when passing probe descriptions between userland and =
the
kernel, for instance when running dtrace -l, or when creating an enabling.

I'll look at DTrace memory usage with and without a change that doubles this
constant. Assuming I haven't missed anything, the difference should not be
significant. I'll also modify the DOF validation code so that we simply skip
probes with excessively long function names.
