[PATCH v3 15/27] function_graph: Add "task variables" per task for fgraph_ops

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Mon Jun 03 2024 - 15:10:59 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.
