Subject: Re: [PATCH v2 1/4] perf lock: Add bpf maps for owner stack tracing

Hello,

If you want to split this code as a separate commit, I think you'd
better explain what these maps do and why you need them.

Can we rename these shorter and save some typings?

I think this can be 'stack_buf'.

owner_data.

Typo.

owner_stack.

owner_stat.  What do you think?

By the way, I got an idea to implement stackid map in BPF using hash
map.  For owner stack, you can use the stacktrace as a key and make a
value an unique integer.  Then the return value can be used as a stack
id (like from bpf_get_stackid) for the owner_data and owner_stat.

Something like:

  s32 get_stack_id(struct owner_stack *owner_stack, u64 stacktrace[])
  {
	s32 *id, new_id;
	static s32 id_gen = 1;

	id = bpf_map_lookup_elem(owner_stack, stacktrace);
	if (id)
		return *id;
	
	new_id = __sync_fetch_and_add(&id_gen, 1);
	bpf_map_update_elem(owner_stack, stacktrace, &new_id, BPF_NOEXIST);

	id = bpf_map_lookup_elem(owner_stack, stacktrace);
	if (id)
		return *id;
	
	return -1;
  }

Later, in user space, you can traverse the owner_stack map to build
reverse mapping from id to stacktrace.

Switching the order of timestamp and count would remove padding.

Usually we don't use typedef to remove the struct tag.
