+/**
+ * ftrace_regs - ftrace partial/optimal register set
+ *
+ * ftrace_regs represents a group of registers which is used at the
+ * function entry and exit. There are three types of registers.
+ *
+ * - Registers for passing the parameters to callee, including the stack
+ *   pointer. (e.g. rcx, rdx, rdi, rsi, r8, r9 and rsp on x86_64)
+ * - Registers for passing the return values to caller.
+ *   (e.g. rax and rdx on x86_64)
+ * - Registers for hooking the function call and return including the
+ *   frame pointer (the frame pointer is architecture/config dependent)
+ *   (e.g. rip, rbp and rsp for x86_64)
+ *
+ * Also, architecture dependent fields can be used for internal process.
+ * (e.g. orig_ax on x86_64)
+ *
+ * On the function entry, those registers will be restored except for
+ * the stack pointer, so that user can change the function parameters
+ * and instruction pointer (e.g. live patching.)
+ * On the function exit, only registers which is used for return values
+ * are restored.
+ *
+ * NOTE: user *must not* access regs directly, only do it via APIs, because
+ * the member can be changed according to the architecture.
