+ * In order to keep track of what pids to trace, a tree is created much
+ * like page tables are used. This creates a sparse bit map, where
+ * the tree is filled in when needed. A PID is at most 30 bits (see
+ * linux/thread.h), and is broken up into 3 sections based on the bit map
+ * of the bits. The 8 MSB is the "upper1" section. The next 8 MSB is the
+ * "upper2" section and the 14 LSB is the "lower" section.
+ *
+ * A trace_pid_list structure holds the "upper1" section, in an
+ * array of 256 pointers (1 or 2K in size) to "upper_chunk" unions, where
+ * each has an array of 256 pointers (1 or 2K in size) to the "lower_chunk"
+ * structures, where each has an array of size 2K bytes representing a bitmask
+ * of the 14 LSB of the PID (256 * 8 = 2048)
+ *
+ * When a trace_pid_list is allocated, it includes the 256 pointer array
+ * of the upper1 unions. Then a "cache" of upper and lower is allocated
+ * where these will be assigned as needed.
+ *
+ * When a bit is set in the pid_list bitmask, the pid to use has
+ * the 8 MSB masked, and this is used to index the array in the
+ * pid_list to find the next upper union. If the element is NULL,
+ * then one is retrieved from the upper_list cache. If none is
+ * available, then -ENOMEM is returned.
+ *
+ * The next 8 MSB is used to index into the "upper2" section. If this
+ * element is NULL, then it is retrieved from the lower_list cache.
+ * Again, if one is not available -ENOMEM is returned.
+ *
+ * Finally the 14 LSB of the PID is used to set the bit in the 16384
+ * bitmask (made up of 2K bytes).
+ *
+ * When the second upper section or the lower section has their last
+ * bit cleared, they are added back to the free list to be reused
+ * when needed.
