Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v8 1/3] perf: Add rctx in perf_callchain_entry
Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2026 15:43:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260126074331.815684-2-chen.dylane@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260126074331.815684-1-chen.dylane@linux.dev>

Record rctx inside the perf_callchain_entry itself, when callers of
get_callchain_entry no longer care about the assignment of rctx, and
will be used in the next patch.

Suggested-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>
