/*
* Gecko Profiler integration with the JS Engine
* https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Performance/Profiling_with_the_Built-in_Profiler
*
* The Gecko Profiler (found in tools/profiler) is an implementation of a
* profiler which has the ability to walk the C++ stack as well as use
* instrumentation to gather information. When dealing with JS, however, the
* profiler needs integration with the engine because otherwise it is very
* difficult to figure out what javascript is executing.
*
* The current method of integration with the profiler is a form of
* instrumentation: every time a JS function is entered, a bit of information
* is pushed onto a stack that the profiler owns and maintains. This
* information is then popped at the end of the JS function. The profiler
* informs the JS engine of this stack at runtime, and it can by turned on/off
* dynamically. Each stack frame has type ProfilingStackFrame.
*
* Throughout execution, the size of the stack recorded in memory may exceed the
* maximum. The JS engine will not write any information past the maximum limit,
* but it will still maintain the size of the stack. Profiler code is aware of
* this and iterates the stack accordingly.
*
* There is some information pushed on the profiler stack for every JS function
* that is entered. First is a char* label with a description of what function
* was entered. Currently this string is of the form "function (file:line)" if
* there's a function name, or just "file:line" if there's no function name
* available. The other bit of information is the relevant C++ (native) stack
* pointer. This stack pointer is what enables the interleaving of the C++ and
* the JS stack. Finally, throughout execution of the function, some extra
* information may be updated on the ProfilingStackFrame structure.
*
* = Profile Strings
*
* The profile strings' allocations and deallocation must be carefully
* maintained, and ideally at a very low overhead cost. For this reason, the JS
* engine maintains a mapping of all known profile strings. These strings are
* keyed in lookup by a JSScript*, but are serialized with a JSFunction*,
* JSScript* pair. A JSScript will destroy its corresponding profile string when
* the script is finalized.
*
* For this reason, a char* pointer pushed on the profiler stack is valid only
* while it is on the profiler stack. The profiler uses sampling to read off
* information from this instrumented stack, and it therefore copies the string
* byte for byte when a JS function is encountered during sampling.
*
* = Native Stack Pointer
*
* The actual value pushed as the native pointer is nullptr for most JS
* functions. The reason for this is that there's actually very little
* correlation between the JS stack and the C++ stack because many JS functions
* all run in the same C++ frame, or can even go backwards in C++ when going
* from the JIT back to the interpreter.
*
* To alleviate this problem, all JS functions push nullptr as their "native
* stack pointer" to indicate that it's a JS function call. The function
* RunScript(), however, pushes an actual C++ stack pointer onto the profiler
* stack. This way when interleaving C++ and JS, if the Gecko Profiler sees a
* nullptr native stack pointer on the profiler stack, it looks backwards for
* the first non-nullptr pointer and uses that for all subsequent nullptr
* native stack pointers.
*
* = Line Numbers
*
* One goal of sampling is to get both a backtrace of the JS stack, but also
* know where within each function on the stack execution currently is. For
* this, each ProfilingStackFrame has a 'pc' field to tell where its execution
* currently is. This field is updated whenever a call is made to another JS
* function, and for the JIT it is also updated whenever the JIT is left.
*
* This field is in a union with a uint32_t 'line' so that C++ can make use of
* the field as well. It was observed that tracking 'line' via PCToLineNumber in
* JS was far too expensive, so that is why the pc instead of the translated
* line number is stored.
*
* As an invariant, if the pc is nullptr, then the JIT is currently executing
* generated code. Otherwise execution is in another JS function or in C++. With
* this in place, only the top frame of the stack can ever have nullptr as its
* pc. Additionally with this invariant, it is possible to maintain mappings of
* JIT code to pc which can be accessed safely because they will only be
* accessed from a signal handler when the JIT code is executing.
