[PATCH v9 14/36] function_graph: Add "task variables" per task for fgraph_ops

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google)
Date: Mon Apr 15 2024 - 09:08:54 EST


From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a "task variables" array on the tasks shadow ret_stack that is the
size of longs for each possible registered fgraph_ops. That's a total
of 16, taking up 8 * 16 = 128 bytes (out of a page size 4k).

This will allow for fgraph_ops to do specific features on a per task basis
having a way to maintain state for each task.
