to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary:
This change updates the version number for FDR logs to 5, and update the
trace processing to support changes in the custom event records.
In the runtime, since we're already writing down the record preamble to
handle CPU migrations and TSC wraparound, we can use the same TSC delta
encoding in the custom event and typed event records that we use in
function event records. We do the same change to typed events (which
were unsupported before this change in the trace processing) which now
show up in the trace.
Future changes should increase our testing coverage to make custom and
typed events as first class entities in the FDR mode log processing
tools.
This change is also a good example of how we end up supporting new
record types in the FDR mode implementation. This shows the places where
new record types are added and supported.
Depends on D54139.

Summary:
This change cuts across LLVM and compiler-rt to add support for
rendering custom events in the XRayRecord type, to allow for including
user-provided annotations in the output YAML (as raw bytes).
This work enables us to add custom event and typed event records into
the `llvm::xray::Trace` type for user-provided events. This can then be
programmatically handled through the C++ API and can be included in some
of the tooling as well. For now we support printing the raw data we
encounter in the custom events in the converted output.
Future work will allow us to start interpreting these custom and typed
events through a yet-to-be-defined API for extending the trace analysis
library.

Summary:
This change cuts across compiler-rt and llvm, to increment the FDR log
version number to 4, and include the CPU ID in the custom event records.
This is a step towards allowing us to change the `llvm::xray::Trace`
object to start representing both custom and typed events in the stream
of records. Follow-on changes will allow us to change the kinds of
records we're presenting in the stream of traces, to incorporate the
data in custom/typed events.
A follow-on change will handle the typed event case, where it may not
fit within the 15-byte buffer for metadata records.
This work is part of the larger effort to enable writing analysis and
processing tools using a common in-memory representation of the events
found in traces. The work will focus on porting existing tools in LLVM
to use the common representation and informing the design of a
library/framework for expressing trace event analysis as C++ programs.

There are a few leftovers in rL343163 which span two lines. This commit
changes these llvm::sort(C.begin(), C.end, ...) to llvm::sort(C, ...)
llvm-svn: 343426
Summary:
This change has a number of fixes for FDR mode in compiler-rt along with
changes to the tooling handling the traces in llvm.
In the runtime, we do the following:
- Advance the "last record" pointer appropriately when writing the
custom event data in the log.
- Add XRAY_NEVER_INSTRUMENT in the rewinding routine.
- When collecting the argument of functions appropriately marked, we
should not attempt to rewind them (and reset the counts of functions
that can be re-wound).
In the tooling, we do the following:
- Remove the state logic in BlockIndexer and instead rely on the
presence/absence of records to indicate blocks.
- Move the verifier into a loop associated with each block.

llvm-svn: 342122
Summary:
In this change, we overhaul the implementation for loading
`llvm::xray::Trace` objects from files by using the combination of
specific FDR Record types and visitors breaking up the logic to
reconstitute an execution trace from flight-data recorder mode traces.
This change allows us to handle out-of-temporal order blocks as written
in files, and more consistently recreate an execution trace spanning
multiple blocks and threads. To do this, we use the `WallclockRecord`
associated with each block to maintain temporal order of blocks, before
attempting to recreate an execution trace.
The new addition in this change is the `TraceExpander` type which can be
thought of as a decompression/decoding routine. This allows us to
maintain the state of an execution environment (thread+process) and
create `XRayRecord` instances that fit nicely into the `Trace`
container. We don't have a specific unit test for the TraceExpander
type, since the end-to-end tests for the `llvm-xray convert` tools
already cover precisely this codepath.
This change completes the refactoring started with D50441.
Depends on D51911.

Previously we've been reading and writing the wrong types which only
worked in little endian implementations. This time we're writing the
same typed values the runtime is using, and reading them appropriately
as well.
llvm-svn: 341241
This change allows us to let the compiler do the right thing for when
handling big-endian and little-endian records for FDR mode function
records.
Previously, we assumed that the encoding was little-endian that reading
the first byte to look for the function id and function record types was
ordered in a little-endian manner. This change allows us to better
handle function records where the first four bytes may actually be
encoded in big-endian thus giving us the wrong bytes where we're seeking
the function information from.
This is a follow-up to D51210 and D51289.
llvm-svn: 341236
This change makes the XRay Trace loading functions first use a
little-endian data extractor, then on failures try a big-endian data
extractor. Without this change, the trace loading facility will not work

Summary:
This change uses a single offset pointer used throughout the
implementation of the individual record parsers. This allows us to
report where in a trace file parsing failed.
We're still in an intermediate step here as we prepare to refactor this
further into a set of types and use object-oriented design principles
for a cleaner implementation. The next steps will be to allow us to
parse/dump files in a streaming fashion and incrementally build up the
structures in memory instead of the current all-or-nothing approach.

Summary:
Before this change, the FDR mode implementation relied on at thread-exit
handling to return buffers back to the (global) buffer queue. This
introduces issues with the initialisation of the thread_local objects
which, even through the use of pthread_setspecific(...) may eventually
call into an allocation function. Similar to previous changes in this
line, we're finding that there is a huge potential for deadlocks when
initialising these thread-locals when the memory allocation
implementation is also xray-instrumented.
In this change, we limit the call to pthread_setspecific(...) to provide
a non-null value to associate to the key created with
pthread_key_create(...). While this doesn't completely eliminate the
potential for the deadlock(s), it does allow us to still clean up at
thread exit when we need to. The change is that we don't need to do more
work when starting and ending a thread's lifetime. We also have a test
to make sure that we actually can safely recycle the buffers in case we
end up re-using the buffer(s) available from the queue on multiple
thread entry/exits.
This change cuts across both LLVM and compiler-rt to allow us to update
both the XRay runtime implementation as well as the library support for
loading these new versions of the FDR mode logging. Version 2 of the FDR
logging implementation makes the following changes:
* Introduction of a new 'BufferExtents' metadata record that's outside
of the buffer's contents but are written before the actual buffer.
This data is associated to the Buffer handed out by the BufferQueue
rather than a record that occupies bytes in the actual buffer.
* Removal of the "end of buffer" records. This is in-line with the
changes we described above, to allow for optimistic logging without
explicit record writing at thread exit.
The optimistic logging model operates under the following assumptions:
* Threads writing to the buffers will potentially race with the thread
attempting to flush the log. To avoid this situation from occuring,
we make sure that when we've finalized the logging implementation,
that threads will see this finalization state on the next write, and
either choose to not write records the thread would have written or
write the record(s) in two phases -- first write the record(s), then
update the extents metadata.
* We change the buffer queue implementation so that once it's handed
out a buffer to a thread, that we assume that buffer is marked
"used" to be able to capture partial writes. None of this will be
safe to handle if threads are racing to write the extents records
and the reader thread is attempting to flush the log. The optimism
comes from the finalization routine being required to complete
before we attempt to flush the log.
This is a fairly significant semantics change for the FDR
implementation. This is why we've decided to update the version number
for FDR mode logs. The tools, however, still need to be able to support
older versions of the log until we finally deprecate those earlier
versions.

Summary:
The arg1 logging handler changed in compiler-rt to start writing a
different type for entries encountered when logging the first argument
of XRay-instrumented functions. This change allows the trace loader to
support reading these record types as well as prepare for when the
basic (naive) mode implementation starts writing down the argument
payloads.
Without this change, binaries with arg1 logging support enabled start
writing unreadable logs for any of the XRay tracing tools.

Summary:
A new FDR metadata record will support logging a function call argument;
appending multiple metadata records will represent a sequence of arguments
meaning that "holes" are not representable by the buffer format. Each
call argument is currently a 64-bit value (useful for "this" pointers and
synchronization objects).
If present, we put this argument to the function call "entry" record it
belongs to, and alter its type to notify the user of its presence.

Summary:
It is problematic for this reader that it expects to read data from
several threads, but the header or message format does not define
framing. Since the buffers are reused, we can't rely on skipping
zeroed out data as a synchronization method either.
There is an argument that this is not version compatible with the format
the reader expected previously. I argue that since the writer wrote garbage
past the end of buffer record, there is no currently working reader to
compromise.
The corresponding writer change is posted to D31384.

Summary:
In this change we move the definition of the log reading routines from
the tools directory in LLVM to {include/llvm,lib}/XRay. We improve the
documentation a little bit for the publicly accessible headers, and
adjust the top-matter. This also leads to some refactoring and cleanup
in the tooling code.
In particular, we do the following:
- Rename the class from LogReader to Trace, as it better represents
the logical set of records as opposed to a log.
- Use file type detection instead of asking the user to say what
format the input file is. This allows us to keep the interface
simple and encapsulate the logic of loading the data appropriately.
In future changes we increase the API surface and write dedicated unit
tests for the XRay library.
Depends on D24376.
