+ * struct perf_ctx_data - PMU specific data for a task
+ * @rcu_head:  To avoid the race on free PMU specific data
+ * @refcount:  To track users
+ * @global:    To track system-wide users
+ * @ctx_cache: Kmem cache of PMU specific data
+ * @data:      PMU specific data
+ *
+ * Currently, the struct is only used in Intel LBR call stack mode to
+ * save/restore the call stack of a task on context switches.
+ *
+ * The rcu_head is used to prevent the race on free the data.
+ * The data only be allocated when Intel LBR call stack mode is enabled.
+ * The data will be freed when the mode is disabled.
+ * The content of the data will only be accessed in context switch, which
+ * should be protected by rcu_read_lock().
+ *
+ * Because of the alignment requirement of Intel Arch LBR, the Kmem cache
+ * is used to allocate the PMU specific data. The ctx_cache is to track
+ * the Kmem cache.
+ *
+ * Careful: Struct perf_ctx_data is added as a pointer in struct task_struct.
+ * When system-wide Intel LBR call stack mode is enabled, a buffer with
+ * constant size will be allocated for each task.
+ * Also, system memory consumption can further grow when the size of
+ * struct perf_ctx_data enlarges.
