That's difficult, as this would require to modify very much code locations and
may also be difficult due to inlining.
Also it would just add one extra level, but I think that's not enough.
I'm rather thinking of something similar to this:
LTTNG_UST_TRACEPOINT_EVENT(
ust,
malloc_callstack,
LTTNG_UST_TP_ARGS(
unsigned int, callstack_length,
int*, callstack
),
LTTNG_UST_TP_FIELDS(
lttng_ust_field_sequence_hex(int, callstack, callstack, unsigned int,
callstack_length)
)
)
And then use backtrace/libunwind to retrieve the required information and put
it into the tracepoint.
Thanks,
Alexander
