I was getting CI failures like:
../gdk/gdkprofiler.c: In function ‘add_markvf’:
../gdk/gdkprofiler.c:111:3: error: function ‘add_markvf’ might be a candidate for ‘gnu_printf’ format attribute [-Werror=suggest-attribute=format]
These don't take a duration, instead they call g_get_monotonic_time() to
and subtract the start time for it.
Almost all our calls are like this, and this makes the callsites clearer
and avoids inlining the clock call into the call site.
usec is the scale of the monotonic timer which is where we get almost
all the times from. The only actual source of nsec is the opengl
GPU time (but who knows what the actual resulution of that is).
Changing this to usec allows us to get rid of " * 1000" in a *lot* of
places all over the codebase, which are ugly and confusing.
This allows us to avoid hand-rolling g_strdup_printf calls,
but also moves the printf into the called function where
it doesn't bloat the code of the calling function if the profiler
is not running.
This uses the new sysprof-3 ABI to implement the capture writer. It also
uses the statically linked libsysprof-capture-3.a that is provided with
Sysprof for the capture writing to ensure that we do not leak any symbols
nor depend on any additional libraries.
The GTK_TRACE_FD can be used to pass a FD for tracing into Gtk. Sysprof
uses this when the Gtk instrument is selected for recording.
This is writing data in the capture format of sysprof,
using the SpCaptureWriter. For now, this is using a
vendored copy of libsysprof. Eventually, we want to
use the static library that sysprof provides.
