 * qsp.c - QEMU Synchronization Profiler
 *
 * Copyright (C) 2018, Emilio G. Cota <[email protected]>
 *
 * License: GNU GPL, version 2 or later.
 *   See the COPYING file in the top-level directory.
 *
 * QSP profiles the time spent in synchronization primitives, which can
 * help diagnose performance problems, e.g. scalability issues when
 * contention is high.
 *
 * The primitives currently supported are mutexes, recursive mutexes and
 * condition variables. Note that not all related functions are intercepted;
 * instead we profile only those functions that can have a performance impact,
 * either due to blocking (e.g. cond_wait, mutex_lock) or cache line
 * contention (e.g. mutex_lock, mutex_trylock).
 *
 * QSP's design focuses on speed and scalability. This is achieved
 * by having threads do their profiling entirely on thread-local data.
 * The appropriate thread-local data is found via a QHT, i.e. a concurrent hash
 * table. To aggregate data in order to generate a report, we iterate over
 * all entries in the hash table. Depending on the number of threads and
 * synchronization objects this might be expensive, but note that it is
 * very rarely called -- reports are generated only when requested by users.
 *
 * Reports are generated as a table where each row represents a call site. A
 * call site is the triplet formed by the __file__ and __LINE__ of the caller
 * as well as the address of the "object" (i.e. mutex, rec. mutex or condvar)
 * being operated on. Focusing on call sites instead of just on objects might
 * seem puzzling. However, it is a sensible choice since otherwise dealing with
 * dynamically-allocated objects becomes difficult (e.g. what to do when an
 * object is destroyed, or reused?). Furthermore, the call site info is of most
 * importance, since it is callers, and not objects, what cause wait time.
 *
 * Alternative designs considered:
 *
 * - Use an off-the-shelf profiler such as mutrace. This is not a viable option
 *   for us because QEMU has __malloc_hook set (by one of the libraries it
 *   uses); leaving this hook unset is required to avoid deadlock in mutrace.
 *
 * - Use a glib HT for each thread, protecting each HT with its own lock.
 *   This isn't simpler than the current design, and is 10% slower in the
 *   atomic_add-bench microbenchmark (-m option).
 *
 * - For reports, just use a binary tree as we aggregate data, instead of having
 *   an intermediate hash table. This would simplify the code only slightly, but
 *   would perform badly if there were many threads and objects to track.
 *
 * Related Work:
 * - Lennart Poettering's mutrace: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/mutrace.html
 * - Lozi, David, Thomas, Lawall and Muller. "Remote Core Locking: Migrating
 *   Critical-Section Execution to Improve the Performance of Multithreaded
