BTW, "-S" for short of "--markers" option is a bit odd. Would we better use -M ? :)

You have to ensure params.target is set before use it.

No need to state out of memory for each place...
If you hit an out of memory for such small piece, you'd better
abort execution. For that purpose, I recommend you to return
errno from each function, and caller must check it.

This also would better return errno.

Why you don't use pr_err() here ? :)
And also, as I commented, I'd like to know which binary doesn't have SDT markers,
at least with -v (verbose) option.
