package starlark

// This file defines a simple execution-time profiler for Starlark.
// It measures the wall time spent executing Starlark code, and emits a
// gzipped protocol message in pprof format (github.com/google/pprof).
//
// When profiling is enabled, the interpreter calls the profiler to
// indicate the start and end of each "span" or time interval. A leaf
// function (whether Go or Starlark) has a single span. A function that
// calls another function has spans for each interval in which it is the
// top of the stack. (A LOAD instruction also ends a span.)
//
// At the start of a span, the interpreter records the current time in
// the thread's topmost frame. At the end of the span, it obtains the
// time again and subtracts the span start time. The difference is added
// to an accumulator variable in the thread. If the accumulator exceeds
// some fixed quantum (10ms, say), the profiler records the current call
// stack and sends it to the profiler goroutine, along with the number
// of quanta, which are subtracted. For example, if the accumulator
// holds 3ms and then a completed span adds 25ms to it, its value is 28ms,
// which exceeeds 10ms. The profiler records a stack with the value 20ms
// (2 quanta), and the accumulator is left with 8ms.
//
// The profiler goroutine converts the stacks into the pprof format and
// emits a gzip-compressed protocol message to the designated output
// file. We use a hand-written streaming proto encoder to avoid
// dependencies on pprof and proto, and to avoid the need to
// materialize the profile data structure in memory.
//
// A limitation of this profiler is that it measures wall time, which
// does not necessarily correspond to CPU time. A CPU profiler requires
// that only running (not runnable) threads are sampled; this is
// commonly achieved by having the kernel deliver a (PROF) signal to an
// arbitrary running thread, through setitimer(2). The CPU profiler in the
// Go runtime uses this mechanism, but it is not possible for a Go
// application to register a SIGPROF handler, nor is it possible for a
// Go handler for some other signal to read the stack pointer of
// the interrupted thread.
//
// Two caveats:
// (1) it is tempting to send the leaf Frame directly to the profiler
// goroutine instead of making a copy of the stack, since a Frame is a
// spaghetti stack--a linked list. However, as soon as execution
// resumes, the stack's Frame.pc values may be mutated, so Frames are
// not safe to share with the asynchronous profiler goroutine.
// (2) it is tempting to use Callables as keys in a map when tabulating
// the pprof protocols's Function entities. However, we cannot assume
// that Callables are valid map keys, and furthermore we must not
// pin function values in memory indefinitely as this may cause lambda
// values to keep their free variables live much longer than necessary.

// TODO(adonovan):
// - make Start/Stop fully thread-safe.
// - fix the pc hack.
// - experiment with other values of quantum.
