From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" <rostedt@goodmis.org> Allow to save stacktraces into a histogram variable. This will be used by synthetic events to allow a stacktrace from one event to be passed and displayed by another event. The special keyword "stacktrace" is to be used to trigger a stack trace for the event that the histogram trigger is attached to. echo 'hist:keys=pid:st=stacktrace" > events/sched/sched_waking/trigger Currently nothing can get access to the "$st" variable above that contains the stack trace, but that will soon change.
