      [tracing] Fix TracingCpuProfiler test for Perfetto · 5ab7510e
      Peter Marshall authored 
      Update the TracingCpuProfiler test to work properly with perfetto.

Roll perfetto to get fixes for bugs encountered with starting/stopping
tracing rapidly, which happens in the test for the tracing profiler.

Add a check that the DataSource::Register call was successful to flush
out any errors there (although they are fixed by the perfetto roll).

Emit a fake trace event when stopping tracing in order to avoid
losing the final trace event that the user provided. Remove the ad-hoc
fake final trace events that the cctests for perfetto added.

Add a test StartAndStopRepeated which flushes out the issues fixed by
the perfetto roll.

      Reland "Add postmortem debugging helper library" · 0921e8f2
      Seth Brenith authored 
      This is a reland of 517ab73f

Updates since original: now compressed pointers passed to the function
GetObjectProperties are required to be sign-extended. Previously, the
function allowed zero-extended values, but that led to ambiguity on
pointers like 0x88044919: is it compressed or is the heap range actually
centered on 0x100000000?

      Add postmortem debugging helper library · 517ab73f
      Seth Brenith authored 
      This change begins to implement the functionality described in
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1evHnb1uLlSbvHAAsmOXyc25x3uh1DjgNa8u1RHvwVhk/edit#
for investigating V8 state in crash dumps.

This change adds a new library, v8_debug_helper, for providing platform-
agnostic assistance with postmortem debugging. This library can be used
by extensions built for debuggers such as WinDbg or lldb. Its public API
is described by debug-helper.h; currently the only method it exposes is
GetObjectProperties, but we'd like to add more functionality over time.
The API surface is restricted to plain C-style structs and pointers, so
that it's easy to link from a debugger extension built with a different
toolchain.

This change also adds a new cctest file to exercise some basic
interaction with the new library.

The API function GetObjectProperties takes an object pointer (which
could be compressed, or weak, or a SMI), and returns a string
description of the object and a list of properties the object contains.
For now, the list of properties is entirely based on Torque object
definitions, but we expect to add custom properties in future updates so
that it can be easier to make sense of complex data structures such as
dictionaries.

GetObjectProperties does several things that are intended to generate
somewhat useful results even in cases where memory may be corrupt or
unavailable:
- The caller may optionally provide a type string which will be used if
  the memory for the object's Map is inaccessible.
- All object pointers are compared against the list of known objects
  generated by mkgrokdump. The caller may optionally provide the
  pointers for the first pages of various heap spaces, to avoid spurious
  matches. If those pointers are not provided, then any matches are
  prefixed with "maybe" in the resulting description string, such as
  "maybe UndefinedValue (0x4288000341 <Oddball>)".

      [tracing] Use the new perfetto client API · edd383fb
      Peter Marshall authored 
      The client API provides a much simpler interface so that we don't have
to deal with producers, consumers etc. directly. This CL removes all the
code that dealt with the more complex API used previously.

The architecture used here requires that the embedder call into
Tracing::Initialize() to set up the tracing backend. The tracing
controller then connects to this backend when calling
DataSource::Register() and Tracing::NewTrace(). This will ultimately
avoid the need for a virtual call (or two) for every trace event that
need to be dispatched over the API - chrome can provide a backend
and V8 will connect to it opaquely with the same code when tracing is
enabled.
