3 * Stack depot - a stack trace storage that avoids duplication.
5 * Stack depot is intended to be used by subsystems that need to store and
6 * later retrieve many potentially duplicated stack traces without wasting
9 * For example, KASAN needs to save allocation and free stack traces for each
10 * object. Storing two stack traces per object requires a lot of memory (e.g.
11 * SLUB_DEBUG needs 256 bytes per object for that). Since allocation and free
12 * stack traces often repeat, using stack depot allows to save about 100x space.
14 * Stack traces are never removed from the stack depot.

36 * Using stack depot requires its initialization, which can be done in 3 ways:
38 * 1. Selecting CONFIG_STACKDEPOT_ALWAYS_INIT. This option is suitable in
39 * scenarios where it's known at compile time that stack depot will be used.
40 * Enabling this config makes the kernel initialize stack depot in mm_init().
42 * 2. Calling stack_depot_request_early_init() during early boot, before
43 * stack_depot_early_init() in mm_init() completes. For example, this can
44 * be done when evaluating kernel boot parameters.
46 * 3. Calling stack_depot_init(). Possible after boot is complete. This option
47 * is recommended for modules initialized later in the boot process, after
48 * mm_init() completes.
50 * stack_depot_init() and stack_depot_request_early_init() can be called
51 * regardless of whether CONFIG_STACKDEPOT is enabled and are no-op when this
52 * config is disabled. The save/fetch/print stack depot functions can only be
53 * called from the code that makes sure CONFIG_STACKDEPOT is enabled _and_
54 * initializes stack depot via one of the ways listed above.

79 * Saves a stack trace from @entries array of size @nr_entries. If @can_alloc is
80 * %true, stack depot can replenish the stack pools in case no space is left
81 * (allocates using GFP flags of @alloc_flags). If @can_alloc is %false, avoids
82 * any allocations and fails if no space is left to store the stack trace.
84 * If the provided stack trace comes from the interrupt context, only the part
85 * up to the interrupt entry is saved.
87 * Context: Any context, but setting @can_alloc to %false is required if
88 * alloc_pages() cannot be used from the current context. Currently
89 * this is the case for contexts where neither %GFP_ATOMIC nor
