// This file contains definitions needed for reading sample profiles.

//
// Text format
// -----------
//
// Sample profiles are written as ASCII text. The file is divided into
// sections, which correspond to each of the functions executed at runtime.
// Each section has the following format
//
// function1:total_samples:total_head_samples
// offset1[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn1:num fn2:num ... ]
// offset2[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn3:num fn4:num ... ]
// ...
// offsetN[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn5:num fn6:num ... ]
// offsetA[.discriminator]: fnA:num_of_total_samples
// offsetA1[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn7:num fn8:num ... ]
// ...
//
// This is a nested tree in which the identation represents the nesting level
// of the inline stack. There are no blank lines in the file. And the spacing
// within a single line is fixed. Additional spaces will result in an error
// while reading the file.
//
// Any line starting with the '#' character is completely ignored.
//
// Inlined calls are represented with indentation. The Inline stack is a
// stack of source locations in which the top of the stack represents the
// leaf function, and the bottom of the stack represents the actual
// symbol to which the instruction belongs.
//
// Function names must be mangled in order for the profile loader to
// match them in the current translation unit. The two numbers in the
// function header specify how many total samples were accumulated in the
// function (first number), and the total number of samples accumulated
// in the prologue of the function (second number). This head sample
// count provides an indicator of how frequently the function is invoked.
//
// There are two types of lines in the function body.
//
// * Sampled line represents the profile information of a source location.
// * Callsite line represents the profile information of a callsite.
//
// Each sampled line may contain several items. Some are optional (marked
// below):
//
// a. Source line offset. This number represents the line number
// in the function where the sample was collected. The line number is
// always relative to the line where symbol of the function is
// defined. So, if the function has its header at line 280, the offset
// 13 is at line 293 in the file.
//
// Note that this offset should never be a negative number. This could
// happen in cases like macros. The debug machinery will register the
// line number at the point of macro expansion. So, if the macro was
// expanded in a line before the start of the function, the profile
// converter should emit a 0 as the offset (this means that the optimizers
// will not be able to associate a meaningful weight to the instructions
// in the macro).
//
// b. [OPTIONAL] Discriminator. This is used if the sampled program
// was compiled with DWARF discriminator support
// (http://wiki.dwarfstd.org/index.php?title=Path_Discriminators).
// DWARF discriminators are unsigned integer values that allow the
// compiler to distinguish between multiple execution paths on the
// same source line location.
//
// For example, consider the line of code ``if (cond) foo(); else bar();``.
// If the predicate ``cond`` is true 80% of the time, then the edge
// into function ``foo`` should be considered to be taken most of the
// time. But both calls to ``foo`` and ``bar`` are at the same source
// line, so a sample count at that line is not sufficient. The
// compiler needs to know which part of that line is taken more
// frequently.
//
// This is what discriminators provide. In this case, the calls to
// ``foo`` and ``bar`` will be at the same line, but will have
// different discriminator values. This allows the compiler to correctly
// set edge weights into ``foo`` and ``bar``.
//
// c. Number of samples. This is an integer quantity representing the
// number of samples collected by the profiler at this source
// location.
//
// d. [OPTIONAL] Potential call targets and samples. If present, this
// line contains a call instruction. This models both direct and
// number of samples. For example,
//
// 130: 7 foo:3 bar:2 baz:7
//
// The above means that at relative line offset 130 there is a call
// instruction that calls one of ``foo()``, ``bar()`` and ``baz()``,
// with ``baz()`` being the relatively more frequently called target.
//
// Each callsite line may contain several items. Some are optional.
//
// a. Source line offset. This number represents the line number of the
// callsite that is inlined in the profiled binary.
//
// b. [OPTIONAL] Discriminator. Same as the discriminator for sampled line.
//
// c. Number of samples. This is an integer quantity representing the
// total number of samples collected for the inlined instance at this
// callsite
//
//
// Binary format
// -------------
//
// This is a more compact encoding. Numbers are encoded as ULEB128 values
// and all strings are encoded in a name table. The file is organized in
// the following sections:
//
// MAGIC (uint64_t)
// File identifier computed by function SPMagic() (0x5350524f463432ff)
//
// VERSION (uint32_t)
// File format version number computed by SPVersion()
//
// NAME TABLE
// SIZE (uint32_t)
// Number of entries in the name table.
// NAMES
// A NUL-separated list of SIZE strings.
//
// FUNCTION BODY (one for each uninlined function body present in the profile)
// HEAD_SAMPLES (uint64_t) [only for top-level functions]
// Total number of samples collected at the head (prologue) of the
// function.
// NOTE: This field should only be present for top-level functions
// (i.e., not inlined into any caller). Inlined function calls
// have no prologue, so they don't need this.
// NAME_IDX (uint32_t)
// Index into the name table indicating the function name.
// SAMPLES (uint64_t)
// Total number of samples collected in this function.
// NRECS (uint32_t)
// Total number of sampling records this function's profile.
// BODY RECORDS
// A list of NRECS entries. Each entry contains:
// OFFSET (uint32_t)
// Line offset from the start of the function.
// DISCRIMINATOR (uint32_t)
// Discriminator value (see description of discriminators
// in the text format documentation above).
// SAMPLES (uint64_t)
// Number of samples collected at this location.
// NUM_CALLS (uint32_t)
// Number of non-inlined function calls made at this location. In the
// case of direct calls, this number will always be 1. For indirect
// calls (virtual functions and function pointers) this will
// represent all the actual functions called at runtime.
// CALL_TARGETS
// A list of NUM_CALLS entries for each called function:
// NAME_IDX (uint32_t)
// Index into the name table with the callee name.
// SAMPLES (uint64_t)
// Number of samples collected at the call site.
// NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS (uint32_t)
// Number of callees inlined into this function.
// INLINED FUNCTION RECORDS
// A list of NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS entries describing each of the inlined
// callees.
// OFFSET (uint32_t)
// Line offset from the start of the function.
// DISCRIMINATOR (uint32_t)
// Discriminator value (see description of discriminators
// in the text format documentation above).
// FUNCTION BODY
// A FUNCTION BODY entry describing the inlined function.
