Is the subject a Freudian slip? Added Beau. I need to add him to the maintainers file for user events ;-) On Fri, 19 May 2023 16:10:35 +0800 sunliming <sunliming@kylinos.cn> wrote: > User processes register name_args for events.

User processes register name_args for events. If the same name are registered multiple times in the same process, it can cause undefined behavior. Because the same name may be used for a diffrent event. If this event has the same format as the original event, it is impossible to distinguish the trace output of these two events. If the event has a different format from the original event, the trace output of the new event is incorrect. Return EADDRINUSE back to the user process if the same event has being registered in the same process.
