     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.)
     37  *
     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.
     40  *
     41  * Note: This module requires the sole ownership of ITIMER_PROF timer and the
     42  * SIGPROF signal.

     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.
     69  *
     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.
     76  *
     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:
     84  *
     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.
