9 // This file contains definitions needed for reading sample profiles.
11 // NOTE: If you are making changes to this file format, please remember
12 // to document them in the Clang documentation at
13 // tools/clang/docs/UsersManual.rst.
18 // Sample profiles are written as ASCII text. The file is divided into
19 // sections, which correspond to each of the functions executed at runtime.
20 // Each section has the following format
22 // function1:total_samples:total_head_samples
23 // offset1[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn1:num fn2:num ... ]
24 // offset2[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn3:num fn4:num ... ]
26 // offsetN[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn5:num fn6:num ... ]
27 // offsetA[.discriminator]: fnA:num_of_total_samples
28 // offsetA1[.discriminator]: number_of_samples [fn7:num fn8:num ... ]
31 // This is a nested tree in which the identation represents the nesting level
32 // of the inline stack. There are no blank lines in the file. And the spacing
33 // within a single line is fixed. Additional spaces will result in an error
34 // while reading the file.
36 // Any line starting with the '#' character is completely ignored.
38 // Inlined calls are represented with indentation. The Inline stack is a
39 // stack of source locations in which the top of the stack represents the
40 // leaf function, and the bottom of the stack represents the actual
41 // symbol to which the instruction belongs.
43 // Function names must be mangled in order for the profile loader to
44 // match them in the current translation unit. The two numbers in the
45 // function header specify how many total samples were accumulated in the
46 // function (first number), and the total number of samples accumulated
47 // in the prologue of the function (second number). This head sample
48 // count provides an indicator of how frequently the function is invoked.
50 // There are two types of lines in the function body.
52 // * Sampled line represents the profile information of a source location.
53 // * Callsite line represents the profile information of a callsite.
55 // Each sampled line may contain several items. Some are optional (marked
58 // a. Source line offset. This number represents the line number
59 // in the function where the sample was collected. The line number is
60 // always relative to the line where symbol of the function is
61 // defined. So, if the function has its header at line 280, the offset
62 // 13 is at line 293 in the file.
64 // Note that this offset should never be a negative number. This could
65 // happen in cases like macros. The debug machinery will register the
66 // line number at the point of macro expansion. So, if the macro was
67 // expanded in a line before the start of the function, the profile
68 // converter should emit a 0 as the offset (this means that the optimizers
69 // will not be able to associate a meaningful weight to the instructions
72 // b. [OPTIONAL] Discriminator. This is used if the sampled program
73 // was compiled with DWARF discriminator support
74 // (http://wiki.dwarfstd.org/index.php?title=Path_Discriminators).
75 // DWARF discriminators are unsigned integer values that allow the
76 // compiler to distinguish between multiple execution paths on the
77 // same source line location.
79 // For example, consider the line of code ``if (cond) foo(); else bar();``.
80 // If the predicate ``cond`` is true 80% of the time, then the edge
81 // into function ``foo`` should be considered to be taken most of the
82 // time. But both calls to ``foo`` and ``bar`` are at the same source
83 // line, so a sample count at that line is not sufficient. The
84 // compiler needs to know which part of that line is taken more
87 // This is what discriminators provide. In this case, the calls to
88 // ``foo`` and ``bar`` will be at the same line, but will have
89 // different discriminator values. This allows the compiler to correctly
90 // set edge weights into ``foo`` and ``bar``.
92 // c. Number of samples. This is an integer quantity representing the
93 // number of samples collected by the profiler at this source
96 // d. [OPTIONAL] Potential call targets and samples. If present, this
97 // line contains a call instruction. This models both direct and
98 // number of samples. For example,
100 // 130: 7 foo:3 bar:2 baz:7
102 // The above means that at relative line offset 130 there is a call
103 // instruction that calls one of ``foo()``, ``bar()`` and ``baz()``,
104 // with ``baz()`` being the relatively more frequently called target.
106 // Each callsite line may contain several items. Some are optional.
108 // a. Source line offset. This number represents the line number of the
109 // callsite that is inlined in the profiled binary.
111 // b. [OPTIONAL] Discriminator. Same as the discriminator for sampled line.
113 // c. Number of samples. This is an integer quantity representing the
114 // total number of samples collected for the inlined instance at this
121 // This is a more compact encoding. Numbers are encoded as ULEB128 values
122 // and all strings are encoded in a name table. The file is organized in
123 // the following sections:
126 // File identifier computed by function SPMagic() (0x5350524f463432ff)
