The reason for dynamic allocation is that we should support the case
where we have
multiple threads, working with multiple tep handlers. We need each
thread to has local
data for each tep handler, so we should use list (or other dynamic
structure) of all
tep handlers per thread. The global variable
static __thread struct tep_thread_data *tep_thread_local;
has to store locals for multiple tep handlers, in context of current thread.
