Subject: usttrace: allow spaces in command-line arguments
X-Git-Tag: v0.16~2
X-Git-Url: https://git.liburcu.org/?p=ust.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=f3c6d9046c03c71b2028c88a9444519299b7b4c2

usttrace: allow spaces in command-line arguments

The usttrace uses $*, which expands arguments without preserving their
boundaries.  This causes arguments that include spaces to be mangled:

[0] "echo"
[1] "hello world"

becomes:

[0] "echo"
[1] "hello"
[2] "world"

Use "$@" instead so that argument boundaries are preserved.
