10 * The callstack context can be added to any kernel event. It records
11 * either the kernel or the userspace callstack, up to a max depth. The
12 * context is a CTF sequence, such that it uses only the space required
13 * for the number of callstack entries.
15 * It allocates callstack buffers per-CPU up to 4 interrupt nesting.
16 * This nesting limit is the same as defined in the ring buffer. It
17 * therefore uses a fixed amount of memory, proportional to the number
20 * size = cpus * nest * depth * sizeof(unsigned long)
22 * Which is 4096 bytes per CPU on 64-bit host and a depth of 128.
23 * The allocation is done at the initialization to avoid memory
24 * allocation overhead while tracing, using a shallow stack.
26 * The kernel callstack is recovered using save_stack_trace(), and the
27 * userspace callstack uses save_stack_trace_user(). They rely on frame
28 * pointers. These are usually available for the kernel, but the
29 * compiler option -fomit-frame-pointer frequently used in popular Linux
30 * distributions may cause the userspace callstack to be unreliable, and
31 * is a known limitation of this approach. If frame pointers are not
32 * available, it produces no error, but the callstack will be empty. We
33 * still provide the feature, because it works well for runtime
34 * environments having frame pointers. In the future, unwind support
35 * and/or last branch record may provide a solution to this problem.
37 * The symbol name resolution is left to the trace reader.
