33 * This module manages the cpu profile timers and the associated interrupt
34 * handler. When enabled, all registered threads in the program are profiled.
35 * (Note: if using linux 2.4 or earlier, you must use the Thread class, in
36 * google3/thread, to ensure all threads are profiled.)
38 * Any component interested in receiving a profile timer interrupt can do so by
39 * registering a callback. All registered callbacks must be async-signal-safe.
41 * Note: This module requires the sole ownership of ITIMER_PROF timer and the
42 * SIGPROF signal.

61 struct ProfileHandlerToken;
64 * Callback function to be used with ProfilefHandlerRegisterCallback. This
65 * function will be called in the context of SIGPROF signal handler and must
66 * be async-signal-safe. The first three arguments are the values provided by
67 * the SIGPROF signal handler. We use void* to avoid using ucontext_t on
68 * non-POSIX systems.
70 * Requirements:
71 * - Callback must be async-signal-safe.
72 * - None of the functions in ProfileHandler are async-signal-safe. Therefore,
73 * callback function *must* not call any of the ProfileHandler functions.
74 * - Callback is not required to be re-entrant. At most one instance of
75 * callback can run at a time.
77 * Notes:
78 * - The SIGPROF signal handler saves and restores errno, so the callback
79 * doesn't need to.
80 * - Callback code *must* not acquire lock(s) to serialize access to data shared
81 * with the code outside the signal handler (callback must be
82 * async-signal-safe). If such a serialization is needed, follow the model
83 * used by profiler.cc:
85 * When code other than the signal handler modifies the shared data it must:
86 * - Acquire lock.
87 * - Unregister the callback with the ProfileHandler.
88 * - Modify shared data.
89 * - Re-register the callback.
90 * - Release lock.
91 * and the callback code gets a lockless, read-write access to the data.
93 typedef void (*ProfileHandlerCallback)(int sig, siginfo_t* sig_info,
94 void* ucontext, void* callback_arg);
97 * Registers a new thread with profile handler and should be called only once
98 * per thread. The main thread is registered at program startup. This routine
99 * is called by the Thread module in google3/thread whenever a new thread is
100 * created. This function is not async-signal-safe.
102 void ProfileHandlerRegisterThread();
105 * Registers a callback routine. This callback function will be called in the
106 * context of SIGPROF handler, so must be async-signal-safe. The returned token
107 * is to be used when unregistering this callback via
108 * ProfileHandlerUnregisterCallback. Registering the first callback enables
109 * the SIGPROF signal handler. Caller must not free the returned token. This
110 * function is not async-signal-safe.
112 ProfileHandlerToken* ProfileHandlerRegisterCallback(
113 ProfileHandlerCallback callback, void* callback_arg);
116 * Unregisters a previously registered callback. Expects the token returned
117 * by the corresponding ProfileHandlerRegisterCallback and asserts that the
118 * passed token is valid. Unregistering the last callback disables the SIGPROF
119 * signal handler. It waits for the currently running callback to
120 * complete before returning. This function is not async-signal-safe.
122 void ProfileHandlerUnregisterCallback(ProfileHandlerToken* token);
125 * FOR TESTING ONLY
126 * Unregisters all the callbacks, stops the timers (if shared) and disables the
127 * SIGPROF handler. All the threads, including the main thread, need to be
128 * re-registered after this call. This function is not async-signal-safe.
130 void ProfileHandlerReset();
133 * Stores profile handler's current state. This function is not
134 * async-signal-safe.
