[v4,06/22] lib/stackdepot: use fixed-sized slots for stack records

Commit Message

[e-mail] Nov. 20, 2023, 5:47 p.m. UTC

From: Andrey Konovalov <[e-mail]>

Instead of storing stack records in stack depot pools one right after
another, use fixed-sized slots.

Add a new Kconfig option STACKDEPOT_MAX_FRAMES that allows to select
the size of the slot in frames. Use 64 as the default value, which is
the maximum stack trace size both KASAN and KMSAN use right now.

Also add descriptions for other stack depot Kconfig options.

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

Signed-off-by: Andrey Konovalov <[e-mail]>

Changes v2->v3:
- Keep previously existing Kconfig options not configurable by users.

Changes v1->v2:
- Add and use STACKDEPOT_MAX_FRAMES Kconfig option.
