[patch V3 01/29] tracing: Cleanup stack trace code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



- Remove the extra array member of stack_dump_trace[] along with the
  ARRAY_SIZE - 1 initialization for struct stack_trace :: max_entries.

  Both are historical leftovers of no value. The stack tracer never exceeds
  the array and there is no extra storage requirement either.

- Make variables which are only used in trace_stack.c static.

- Simplify the enable/disable logic.

- Rename stack_trace_print() as it's using the stack_trace_ namespace. Free
  the name up for stack trace related functions.

V3: Remove the -1 init and split the variable declaration as requested by Steven.
V2: Add more cleanups and use print_max_stack() as requested by Steven.
