SetSampleContext() sets the TickSample's register fields, and the two callers
of SetSampleContext() set the TickSample's mContext.
This patch changes SetSampleContext() so it sets all the fields in one place.
It also renames SetSampleContext() as FillInSample(), because it sets more than
just the context.

Currently each live thread has a PseudoStack that is owned by tlsPseudoStack,
and a ThreadInfo that has a non-owning pointer to the same PseudoStack.
Then, if the profile is active when the thread dies, ownership of the
PseudoStack is transferred to the ThreadInfo.
This patch simplifies the ownership rules. Every ThreadInfo now always owns its
PseudoStack and is responsible for destroying it. tlsPseudoStack is a
non-owning pointer, and so must be cleared when a PseudoStack is destroyed.
This simplifies the code in a few places.

This patch does the following.
- Splits TickSample's constructor in two, one for the periodic sample case, and
one for the synchronous sample case, and initializes more stuff in them. (The
two constructors aren't that different right now, but they will become more
different when I remove TickSample::mThreadInfo.)
- Makes all the constructor-filled fields in TickSample |const|.
- Reorders the fields so that the constructor-filled ones are before the ones
that get filled in later.
- Omits mContext on Mac via conditional compilation, to make the omission
clearer.

LastSample only makes sense for periodic samples, which are written to the
global ProfileBuffer. It doesn't make sense for synchronous samples which are
written to their own unshared buffer. At the moment it doesn't hurt to use
them in this nonsensical way, but the ThreadInfo profiler_get_backtrace()
will be removed soon, and we won't even have a LastSample to use nonsensically.
So this patch makes the LastSample argument to addTagThreadId() optional. Which
means we have to pass in a ThreadId, so there's no longer much point
duplicating the ThreadId in LastSample, so the patch removes that field too.
This avoids the possibility of the duplicate ThreadId failing to match, which
is nice.

StreamSamplesAndMarkers() is the only ThreadInfo method called on
ProfilerBacktrace::mThreadInfo. Furthermore, it doesn't use all that much stuff
from ThreadInfo, and what stuff it does use we can instead pass in as

This patch moves StreamSamplesAndMarkers() out of the class. It's a little
ugly, but a necessary precursor for removing ProfilerBacktrace::mThreadInfo and

When the profiler is running in privacy mode, we don't want to include dynamic
strings from PROFILER_LABEL_DYNAMIC to end up in the profile.
Rather than checking this every time we enter a scope marked with
PROFILER_LABEL_DYNAMIC, with this patch we will push the dynamic string into
the pseudo stack entry regardless, and then check the privacy mode during
sampling and ignore the dynamic string as necessary.
This way we can avoid taking the profiler state lock in PROFILER_LABEL_DYNAMIC
and also save a branch.

This patch simplifies and increases the consistency of how HAVE_NATIVE_UNWIND
is used.
- Its definition is moved from platform.h to platform.cpp, because the latter
is the only file that uses it.
- It's now defined in the same place as USE_{NS,EHABI,LUL}_STACKWALK, and used
in preference to those, where possible. Also, it's now defined on Linux and
Android even if MOZ_PROFILING is not.
- HAVE_NATIVE_UNWIND is now used consistently and by itself for all relevant
conditions, including when defining the presence and use of the "stackwalk"
feature.
- The patch inlines and removes is_native_unwinding_avail().
Note that MOZ_PROFILING must be defined for HAVE_NATIVE_UNWIND to be true on
Windows and Mac, but not on Linux and Android.

This patch does the following.
- Renames TickSample's members to mFoo style.
- Changes TickSample's constructor to set mTimeStamp.
- Moves TickSample creation from
SamplerThread::SuspendAndSampleAndResumeThread() to SamplerThread::Run(), so
it's not repeated for each platform.
- Changes TickSample::PopulateContext() so it takes a |tick_context_t*|
parameter, which avoids having to cast from |void*|.
Bug 1339695 part 8 accidentally disabled native stack walking on Android by
using GP_arm_android instead of GP_PLAT_arm_android in a #if. This patch fixes

code while it was disabled.

This patch adds logging to some important functions that currently lack it.
Thread registration/unregistration is done with DEBUG_LOG because it's
more verbose than the other profiler logging, but less verbose than LUL's
logging.
The patch also scraps the BEGIN/END logging pairs because they bloat the output
for little gain. Now it just logs on function entry.

It's a very general mechanism for replacing the implementation of
printf_stderr().
It's primarily used by the profiler, sparingly, and not in an important way.
Worse, it prevents us from using MOZ_LOG in the profiler, which is something I
want. Because if any code that locks gPSMutex also calls MOZ_LOG, that then
calls printf_stderr(), which calls profiler_log(), which locks gPSMutex, which
deadlocks.
The only other use of set_stderr_callback() is for the ultra-hacky,
for-local-use-only copy_stderr_to_file() function, which was added for B2G
debugging and is no longer necessary.
This patch removes set_stderr_callback() altogether.

All three platform-*.cpp files have similar structure, most especially for
SamplerThread::Run(), with considerable duplication. This patch factors out
the common parts into a single implementation in platform.cpp.
* The top level structure of class SamplerThread has been moved to
platform.cpp.
* The class has some target-dependent fields, relating to signal handling and
thread identity.
* There's a single implementation of Run() in platform.cpp.
* AllocPlatformData() and PlatformDataDestructor::operator() have also been
commoned up and moved into platform.cpp.
* Time units in SamplerThread have been tidied up. We now use microseconds
throughout, except in the constructor. All time interval field and variable
names incorporate the unit (microseconds/milliseconds) for clarity. The
Windows uses of such values are scaled up/down by 1000 accordingly.
* The pre-existing MacOS Run() implementation contained logic that attempted
to keep "to schedule" in the presence of inaccuracy in the actual sleep
intervals. This now applies to all targets. A couple of comments on this
code have been added.
* platform-{win32,macos,linux-android}.cpp have had their Run() methods
removed, and all other methods placed in the same sequences, to the extent
that is possible.
* In the Win32 and MacOS implementations, Thread::SampleContext has been
renamed to Thread::SuspendSampleAndResumeThread as that better describes
what it does. In the Linux/Android implementation there was no such
separate method, so one has been created.
* The three Thread::SuspendSampleAndResumeThread methods have been commented
in such a way as to emphasise their identical top level structure.
* The point in platform.cpp where platform-{win32,macos,linux-android}.cpp are
#included has been moved slightly earlier in the file, into the
SamplerThread encampment, as that seems like a better place for it.

ProfileBuffer::FindLastSampleOfThread currently involves a linear search
backwards through the sample buffer. Profiling showed that to be the largest
profiler cost by far, at least on Linux. Bugs 1344118 and 1344258
significantly improve the situation, collectively reducing the cost by a
factor of at least 5 and often much more. But the linear search is still
present and still dominant. The worst of it is that it's unnecessary: we
could achieve the same by recording the start point of the most recent sample
for each thread in that thread's ThreadInfo record.
This patch does exactly that, adding the type ProfileBuffer::LastSample to
store the start points. LastSample also includes the ID of the thread it
pertains to as a read-only field, as that is needed in various places.
addTag doesn't check whether we're overwriting buffer entries containing start
points. Instead, FindLastSample checks whether the entry pointed to the
LastSample it is given still contains a marker.

Replace it with profiler_is_active() in one place, and simply remove it in the
other places. These other places are:
- Around the call to profiler_OOP_exit_profile: profiler_OOP_exit_profile
itself already checks whether the profiler is running and does nothing if
it's not.
- When handling the 'profiler-subprocess-gather' notification. This
notification is sent by the profiler because it's interested in the
profile, so there's little reason to reject it.
- In RecvProfile: If the child process sent us a profile, it did so in
response to a GatherProfile request, so chances are that we're still
interested in that response.
These changes may get us a little closer to a state where you can call
getProfileDataAsync, stop the profiler before the content process profiles
have all come in, and then still receive a response with all the profiles.
At the moment, stopping the profiler will abort the profile gathering process,
but that seems more like an accident and less like the behavior you'd want.

This patch forks the breakpad files used for GUID generation and replaces them
with copies living together with the rest of the forked sources. Since other
files in the breakpad sources rely on the original files being present they
haven't been removed but we deliberately define their inclusion definitions in
the build system to prevent them from contributing to the build. This ensures
that we always use our own version of the GUID generator while not touching
the non-forked sources.

- Each library has a "debugName" field that contains the library's debug
name, on all platforms. On Windows, the debug name is the filename
(basename) of the pdb file for that binary. On other platforms, debugName
is the same as |name|.
- Each library has a "debugPath" field that contains the absolute path
library's pdb file on Windows; on non-Windows, debugPath and path are the
same.
- Each library has an "arch" field that is either an empty string (Linux +
Windows) or the library's architecture; it'll differentiate between the
architectures "x86_64" and "x86_64h". (x86_64h is used for binaries that

This is interesting information on Mac because some system libraries come in
two 64 bit versions: a regular one, and one that contains Haswell-specific
instructions. The former 'architecture' is called x86_64 and the latter is
called x86_64h (h for Haswell).
We set arch to the empty string on non-Mac platforms. It's not all that
interesting on those platforms because there will be only one architecture
in the binary at the given path, unlike on Mac where you can have fat
binaries with multiple architectures.
