[PATCH v2 1/3] lib/stackdepot: Add a refcount field in stack_record

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

 



We want to filter out page_owner output and print only those
stacks that have been repeated beyond a certain threshold.
This gives us the chance to get rid of a lot of noise.
In order to do that, we need to keep track of how many repeated stacks
(for allocation) do we have, so we add a new refcount_t field
in the stack_record struct.

Note that this might increase the size of the struct for some
architectures.
E.g: x86_64 is not affected due to alignment, but x86 32bits might.

The alternative would be to have some kind of struct like this:

struct track_stacks {
	struct stack_record *stack;
	struct track_stacks *next;
	refcount_t stack_count;

But ithat would imply to perform more allocations and glue everything
together, which would make the code more complex, so I think that
going with a new field in the struct stack_record is good enough.

Note that on __set_page_owner_handle(), page_owner->handle is set,
and on __reset_page_owner(), page_owner->free_handle is set.

We are interested in page_owner->handle, so when __set_page_owner()
gets called, we derive the stack_record struct from page_owner->handle,
and we increment its refcount_t field; and when __reset_page_owner()
gets called, we derive its stack_record from page_owner->handle()
and we decrement its refcount_t field.
