Summary:
Before this change, the FDR mode implementation relied on at thread-exit
handling to return buffers back to the (global) buffer queue. This
introduces issues with the initialisation of the thread_local objects
which, even through the use of pthread_setspecific(...) may eventually
call into an allocation function. Similar to previous changes in this
line, we're finding that there is a huge potential for deadlocks when
initialising these thread-locals when the memory allocation
implementation is also xray-instrumented.
In this change, we limit the call to pthread_setspecific(...) to provide
a non-null value to associate to the key created with
pthread_key_create(...). While this doesn't completely eliminate the
potential for the deadlock(s), it does allow us to still clean up at
thread exit when we need to. The change is that we don't need to do more
work when starting and ending a thread's lifetime. We also have a test
to make sure that we actually can safely recycle the buffers in case we
end up re-using the buffer(s) available from the queue on multiple
thread entry/exits.
This change cuts across both LLVM and compiler-rt to allow us to update
both the XRay runtime implementation as well as the library support for
loading these new versions of the FDR mode logging. Version 2 of the FDR
logging implementation makes the following changes:
* Introduction of a new 'BufferExtents' metadata record that's outside
of the buffer's contents but are written before the actual buffer.
This data is associated to the Buffer handed out by the BufferQueue
rather than a record that occupies bytes in the actual buffer.
* Removal of the "end of buffer" records. This is in-line with the
changes we described above, to allow for optimistic logging without
explicit record writing at thread exit.
The optimistic logging model operates under the following assumptions:
* Threads writing to the buffers will potentially race with the thread
attempting to flush the log. To avoid this situation from occuring,
we make sure that when we've finalized the logging implementation,
that threads will see this finalization state on the next write, and
either choose to not write records the thread would have written or
write the record(s) in two phases -- first write the record(s), then
update the extents metadata.
* We change the buffer queue implementation so that once it's handed
out a buffer to a thread, that we assume that buffer is marked
"used" to be able to capture partial writes. None of this will be
safe to handle if threads are racing to write the extents records
and the reader thread is attempting to flush the log. The optimism
comes from the finalization routine being required to complete
before we attempt to flush the log.
This is a fairly significant semantics change for the FDR
implementation. This is why we've decided to update the version number
for FDR mode logs. The tools, however, still need to be able to support
older versions of the log until we finally deprecate those earlier
versions.

Summary:
This change removes the dependency on using a std::deque<...> for the
storage of the buffers in the buffer queue. We instead implement a
fixed-size circular buffer that's resilient to exhaustion, and preserves
the semantics of the BufferQueue.
We're moving away from using std::deque<...> for two reasons:
- We want to remove dependencies on the STL for data structures.
- We want the data structure we use to not require re-allocation in
the normal course of operation.
The internal implementation of the buffer queue uses heap-allocated
arrays that are initialized once when the BufferQueue is created, and
re-uses slots in the buffer array as buffers are returned in order.
We also change the lock used in the implementation to a spinlock
instead of a blocking mutex. We reason that since the release operations
now take very little time in the critical section, that a spinlock would
be appropriate.
This change is related to D38073.
This change is a re-submit with the following changes:
- Keeping track of the live buffers with a counter independent of the
pointers keeping track of the extents of the circular buffer.
- Additional documentation of what the data members are meant to
represent.

Instead of std::atomic APIs for atomic operations, we instead use APIs
include with sanitizer_common. This allows us to, at runtime, not have
to depend on potentially dynamically provided implementations of these
atomic operations.

Summary:
Depending on C++11 <system_error> introduces a link-time requirement to
C++11 symbols. Removing it allows us to depend on header-only C++11 and
up libraries.
Partially fixes http://llvm.org/PR32274 -- we know there's more invasive work
to be done, but we're doing it incrementally.

Summary:
In this change we introduce the notion of a "flight data recorder" mode
for XRay logging, where XRay logs in-memory first, and write out data
on-demand as required (as opposed to the naive implementation that keeps
logging while tracing is "on"). This depends on D26232 where we
implement the core data structure for holding the buffers that threads
will be using to write out records of operation.
This implementation only currently works on x86_64 and depends heavily
on the TSC math to write out smaller records to the inmemory buffers.
Also, this implementation defines two different kinds of records with
different sizes (compared to the current naive implementation): a
MetadataRecord (16 bytes) and a FunctionRecord (8 bytes). MetadataRecord
entries are meant to write out information like the thread ID for which
the metadata record is defined for, whether the execution of a thread
moved to a different CPU, etc. while a FunctionRecord represents the
different kinds of function call entry/exit records we might encounter
in the course of a thread's execution along with a delta from the last
time the logging handler was called.
While this implementation is not exactly what is described in the
original XRay whitepaper, this one gives us an initial implementation
that we can iterate and build upon.

Before this, the change committed in D26232 might have an uninitialised
std::atomic<bool> that may or may not have a valid state. On aarch64
this breaks consistently, while it doesn't manifest as a problem in
x86_64.
This is an attempt to un-break this in aarch64.

This implements a simple buffer queue to manage a pre-allocated queue of
fixed-sized buffers to hold XRay records. We need this to support
Flight Data Recorder (FDR) mode. We also implement this as a sub-library
first to allow for development before actually using it in an
implementation.
Some important properties of the buffer queue:
- Thread-safe enqueueing/dequeueing of fixed-size buffers.
- Pre-allocation of buffers at construction.
This is a re-roll of the previous attempt to submit, because it caused
failures in arm and aarch64.
