5 // CPU profiling.
6 // Based on algorithms and data structures used in
7 // http://code.google.com/p/google-perftools/.
8 //
9 // The main difference between this code and the google-perftools
10 // code is that this code is written to allow copying the profile data
11 // to an arbitrary io.Writer, while the google-perftools code always
12 // writes to an operating system file.
14 // The signal handler for the profiling clock tick adds a new stack trace
15 // to a hash table tracking counts for recent traces. Most clock ticks
16 // hit in the cache. In the event of a cache miss, an entry must be
17 // evicted from the hash table, copied to a log that will eventually be
18 // written as profile data. The google-perftools code flushed the
19 // log itself during the signal handler. This code cannot do that, because
20 // the io.Writer might block or need system calls or locks that are not
21 // safe to use from within the signal handler. Instead, we split the log
22 // into two halves and let the signal handler fill one half while a goroutine
23 // is writing out the other half. When the signal handler fills its half, it
24 // offers to swap with the goroutine. If the writer is not done with its half,
25 // we lose the stack trace for this clock tick (and record that loss).
26 // The goroutine interacts with the signal handler by calling getprofile() to
27 // get the next log piece to write, implicitly handing back the last log
28 // piece it obtained.
30 // The state of this dance between the signal handler and the goroutine
31 // is encoded in the Profile.handoff field. If handoff == 0, then the goroutine
32 // is not using either log half and is waiting (or will soon be waiting) for
33 // a new piece by calling notesleep(&p->wait). If the signal handler
34 // changes handoff from 0 to non-zero, it must call notewakeup(&p->wait)
35 // to wake the goroutine. The value indicates the number of entries in the
36 // log half being handed off. The goroutine leaves the non-zero value in
37 // place until it has finished processing the log half and then flips the number
38 // back to zero. Setting the high bit in handoff means that the profiling is over,
39 // and the goroutine is now in charge of flushing the data left in the hash table
40 // to the log and returning that data.
42 // The handoff field is manipulated using atomic operations.
43 // For the most part, the manipulation of handoff is orderly: if handoff == 0
44 // then the signal handler owns it and can change it to non-zero.
45 // If handoff != 0 then the goroutine owns it and can change it to zero.
46 // If that were the end of the story then we would not need to manipulate
47 // handoff using atomic operations. The operations are needed, however,
48 // in order to let the log closer set the high bit to indicate "EOF" safely
49 // in the situation when normally the goroutine "owns" handoff.
