    ftrace: Add return address pointer to ftrace_ret_stack · 9a7c348b
    Josh Poimboeuf 提交于
    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).
