Correct. I missed to add OP_COMM support. And uprobe's fetch_store_string
is only for user space strings.

Hmm, instead, I would like to add current->comm checker and only allows
to copy that. That would be simpler and enough.
Could you test below patch?
tracing: uprobes: Re-enable $comm support for uprobe events
From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhira...@kernel.org>
Since commit 533059281ee5 ("tracing: probeevent: Introduce new
argument fetching code") dropped the $comm support from uprobe
events, this re-enable it.
For $comm support, use strncpy() instead of strncpy_from_user()
to copy current task's comm. Because it is in the kernel space,
strncpy_from_user() always fails to copy the comm.
This also use strlen() instead of strlen_user() to measure the
length of the comm.
