The problem was the "trace(read_max,count)" where the "count" should be "$count" as "onmax()" only handles variables (although it really should be able to figure out that "count" is a field of sys_enter_read). But there's a path that does not find the variable and ends up passing a NULL for the event, which ends up getting passed to "strcmp()".
Add a check for NULL to return and error on the command with:
# cat error_log hist:syscalls:sys_enter_read: error: Couldn't create or find variable Command: hist:keys=common_pid:count=count:onmax($count).trace(read_max,count) ^ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210808003011.4037f8d0@oasis.local.home
