From 9a7c348ba6a46f6270d4fe49577649dad5664fe7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Poimboeuf Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2016 06:52:57 -0500 Subject: ftrace: Add return address pointer to ftrace_ret_stack Storing this value will help prevent unwinders from getting out of sync with the function graph tracer ret_stack. Now instead of needing a stateful iterator, they can compare the return address pointer to find the right ret_stack entry. Note that an array of 50 ftrace_ret_stack structs is allocated for every task. So when an arch implements this, it will add either 200 or 400 bytes of memory usage per task (depending on whether it's a 32-bit or 64-bit platform).
