This is mostly a preparation to enable the creation of full callchain nodes for inline frames. Such frames will reference the IP of the non-inlined frame, but hold the symbol and srcline for an inlined location. As such, we won't be able to query the srcline on-demand based on the IP alone. Instead, we will leverage the functionality provided by this patch here, and store the srcline for the inlined nodes in the new srcline member of callchain_cursor_node. Note that this patch on its own leaks the srcline, as there is no free_callchain_cursor_node or similar. A future patch will add caching of the srcline and handle deletion properly.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
