qsp: QEMU's Synchronization Profiler

The goal of this module is to profile synchronization primitives (i.e.
mutexes, recursive mutexes and condition variables) so that scalability
issues can be quickly diagnosed.

Sync primitives are profiled by QSP based on the vaddr of the object accessed
as well as the call site (file:line_nr). That means the same object called
from two different call sites will be tracked in separate entries, which
might be reported together or separately (see subsequent commit on
call site coalescing).

Some perf numbers:

Host: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz
Command: taskset -c 0 tests/atomic_add-bench -d 5 -m

- Before: 54.80 Mops/s
- After:  54.75 Mops/s

That is, a negligible slowdown due to the now indirect call to
qemu_mutex_lock. Note that using a branch instead of an indirect
call introduces a more severe slowdown (53.65 Mops/s, i.e. 2% slowdown).

Enabling the profiler (with -p, added in this series) is more interesting:

- No profiling: 54.75 Mops/s
- W/ profiling: 12.53 Mops/s

That is, a 4.36X slowdown.

We can break down this slowdown by removing the get_clock calls or
the entry lookup:

- No profiling:     54.75 Mops/s
- W/o get_clock:    25.37 Mops/s
- W/o entry lookup: 19.30 Mops/s
- W/ profiling:     12.53 Mops/s

+ * QSP profiles the time spent in synchronization primitives, which can
+ * help diagnose performance problems, e.g. scalability issues when
+ * contention is high.
+ *
+ * The primitives currently supported are mutexes, recursive mutexes and
+ * condition variables. Note that not all related functions are intercepted;
+ * instead we profile only those functions that can have a performance impact,
+ * either due to blocking (e.g. cond_wait, mutex_lock) or cache line
+ * contention (e.g. mutex_lock, mutex_trylock).
+ *
+ * QSP's design focuses on speed and scalability. This is achieved
+ * by having threads do their profiling entirely on thread-local data.
+ * The appropriate thread-local data is found via a QHT, i.e. a concurrent hash
+ * table. To aggregate data in order to generate a report, we iterate over
+ * all entries in the hash table. Depending on the number of threads and
+ * synchronization objects this might be expensive, but note that it is
+ * very rarely called -- reports are generated only when requested by users.
+ *
+ * Reports are generated as a table where each row represents a call site. A
+ * call site is the triplet formed by the __file__ and __LINE__ of the caller
+ * as well as the address of the "object" (i.e. mutex, rec. mutex or condvar)
+ * being operated on. Focusing on call sites instead of just on objects might
+ * seem puzzling. However, it is a sensible choice since otherwise dealing with
+ * dynamically-allocated objects becomes difficult (e.g. what to do when an
+ * object is destroyed, or reused?). Furthermore, the call site info is of most
+ * importance, since it is callers, and not objects, what cause wait time.
+ *
+ * Alternative designs considered:
+ *
+ * - Use an off-the-shelf profiler such as mutrace. This is not a viable option
+ *   for us because QEMU has __malloc_hook set (by one of the libraries it
+ *   uses); leaving this hook unset is required to avoid deadlock in mutrace.
+ *
+ * - Use a glib HT for each thread, protecting each HT with its own lock.
+ *   This isn't simpler than the current design, and is 10% slower in the
+ *   atomic_add-bench microbenchmark (-m option).
+ *
+ * - For reports, just use a binary tree as we aggregate data, instead of having
+ *   an intermediate hash table. This would simplify the code only slightly, but
+ *   would perform badly if there were many threads and objects to track.
+ *
+ * Related Work:
+ * - Lennart Poettering's mutrace: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/mutrace.html
