[PATCH v2 15/19] lib/stackdepot: add refcount for records

andrey.konovalov
2023-09-13T17:17:31Z

From: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com>

Add a reference counter for how many times a stack records has been added
to stack depot.

Add a new STACK_DEPOT_FLAG_GET flag to stack_depot_save_flags that
instructs the stack depot to increment the refcount.

Do not yet decrement the refcount; this is implemented in one of the
following patches.

Do not yet enable any users to use the flag to avoid overflowing the
refcount.

This is preparatory patch for implementing the eviction of stack records
from the stack depot.

Signed-off-by: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com>

Changes v1->v2:
- Add forgotten refcount_inc() under write lock.
- Add STACK_DEPOT_FLAG_GET flag for stack_depot_save_flags.
