From 97c79a38cd454602645f0470ffb444b3b75ce574 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo Date: Thu, 28 Apr 2016 13:16:33 -0300 Subject: perf core: Per event callchain limit Additionally to being able to control the system wide maximum depth via /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_stack, now we are able to ask for different depths per event, using perf_event_attr.sample_max_stack for that. This uses an u16 hole at the end of perf_event_attr, that, when perf_event_attr.sample_type has the PERF_SAMPLE_CALLCHAIN, if sample_max_stack is zero, means use perf_event_max_stack, otherwise it'll be bounds checked under callchain_mutex.
