/* *************** SPS Sampler Information ****************
*
* SPS is an always on profiler that takes fast and low overheads samples
* of the program execution using only userspace functionity for portability.
* The goal of this module is to provide performance data in a generic
* cross platform way without requiring custom tools or kernel support.
*
* Non goals: Support features that are platform specific or replace
* platform specific profilers.
*
* Samples are collected to form a timeline with optional timeline event (markers)
* used for filtering.
*
* SPS collects samples in a platform independant way by using a speudo stack abstraction
* of the real program stack by using 'sample stack frames'. When a sample is collected
* all active sample stack frames and the program counter are recorded.
*/
/* *************** SPS Sampler File Format ****************
*
* Simple new line seperated tag format:
* S -> BOF tags EOF
* tags -> tag tags
* tag -> CHAR - STRING
*
* Tags:
* 's' - Sample tag followed by the first stack frame followed by 0 or more 'c' tags.
* 'c' - Continue Sample tag gives remaining tag element. If a 'c' tag is seen without
* a preceding 's' tag it should be ignored. This is to support the behavior
* of circular buffers.
* If the 'stackwalk' feature is enabled this tag will have the format
* 'l-<library name>@<hex address>' and will expect an external tool to translate
* the tag into something readable through a symbolication processing step.
* 'm' - Timeline marker. Zero or more may appear before a 's' tag.
* 'l' - Information about the program counter library and address. Post processing
* can include function and source line. If built with leaf data enabled
* this tag will describe the last 'c' tag.
* 'r' - Responsiveness tag following an 's' tag. Gives an indication on how well the
* application is responding to the event loop. Lower is better.
* 't' - Elapse time since recording started.
*
