[PATCH 14/15] stackdepot: allow users to evict stack traces

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

 



From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@xxxxxxxxxx>

Add stack_depot_evict, a function that decrements a reference counter
on a stack record and removes it from the stack depot once the counter
reaches 0.

Internally, when removing a stack record, the function unlinks it from
the hash table bucket and returns to the freelist.

With this change, the users of stack depot can call stack_depot_evict
when keeping a stack trace in the stack depot is not needed anymore.
This allows avoiding polluting the stack depot with irrelevant stack
traces and thus have more space to store the relevant ones before the
stack depot reaches its capacity.
