Currently the execution tracer synchronizes with itself using very
heavyweight operations. As a result, it's totally fine for most of the
tracer code to look like:
if traceEnabled() {
traceXXX(...)
}
However, if we want to make that synchronization more lightweight (as
issue #60773 proposes), then this is insufficient. In particular, we
need to make sure the tracer can't observe an inconsistency between g
atomicstatus and the event that would be emitted for a particular
g transition. This means making the g status change appear to happen
atomically with the corresponding trace event being written out from the
perspective of the tracer.
This requires a change in API to something more like a lock. While we're
here, we might as well make sure that trace events can *only* be emitted
while this lock is held. This change introduces such an API:
traceAcquire, which returns a value that can emit events, and
traceRelease, which requires the value that was returned by
traceAcquire. In practice, this won't be a real lock, it'll be more like
a seqlock.
For the current tracer, this API is completely overkill and the value
returned by traceAcquire basically just checks trace.enabled. But it's
necessary for the tracer described in #60773 and we can implement that
more cleanly if we do this refactoring now instead of later.
For #60773.
