I tried and crashed the system by running 2 scripts with:

  echo 'ip_rcv(u64 skb, u64 dev)' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_events
  echo 'SyS_openat(int dfd, string buf, x32 flags, x32 mode)' >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_events
  echo 'SyS_open(x8[32] buf, x32 flags, x32 mode)' >> /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/function_events
 

There's no reason that we can't have more than one function  event
attached to the same function. I'm adding this:
