+ * The capture buffer size needs to be below 1024 bytes to avoid the
+ * frame to be larger than the 1024 limit enforced by the kernel. If we
+ * ever need to increase it, we will need to use a memory allocation
+ * scheme which allows allocating temporary memory chunks from the
+ * instrumentation sites. This could be done by adapting lttng
+ * tp-mempool to become nmi-safe and lock-free.
