Accessing the HT from an iterator results almost always
in a deadlock. Given that only one qht-internal function
uses this argument, drop it from the interface.

This currently has no users, but the use case is so common that I
think we must support it.
Note that without the appended we cannot safely remove a set of
elements; a 2-step approach (i.e. qht_iter first, keep track of
the to-be-deleted elements, and then a bunch of qht_remove calls)
would be racy, since between the iteration and the removals other
threads might insert additional elements.

The goal of this module is to profile synchronization primitives (i.e.
mutexes, recursive mutexes and condition variables) so that scalability
issues can be quickly diagnosed.
Sync primitives are profiled by QSP based on the vaddr of the object accessed
as well as the call site (file:line_nr). That means the same object called
from two different call sites will be tracked in separate entries, which
might be reported together or separately (see subsequent commit on
call site coalescing).
Some perf numbers:
Host: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz
Command: taskset -c 0 tests/atomic_add-bench -d 5 -m
- Before: 54.80 Mops/s
- After: 54.75 Mops/s
That is, a negligible slowdown due to the now indirect call to
qemu_mutex_lock. Note that using a branch instead of an indirect
call introduces a more severe slowdown (53.65 Mops/s, i.e. 2% slowdown).
Enabling the profiler (with -p, added in this series) is more interesting:
- No profiling: 54.75 Mops/s
- W/ profiling: 12.53 Mops/s
That is, a 4.36X slowdown.
We can break down this slowdown by removing the get_clock calls or
the entry lookup:
- No profiling: 54.75 Mops/s
- W/o get_clock: 25.37 Mops/s
- W/o entry lookup: 19.30 Mops/s
- W/ profiling: 12.53 Mops/s

The meaning of "existing" is now changed to "matches in hash and

qht_lookup now uses the default cmp function. qht_lookup_custom is defined
to retain the old behaviour, that is a cmp function is explicitly provided.
qht_insert will gain use of the default cmp in the next patch.
Note that we move qht_lookup_custom's @func to be the last argument,
which makes the new qht_lookup as simple as possible.
Instead of this (i.e. keeping @func 2nd):
0000000000010750 <qht_lookup>:
10750: 89 d1 mov %edx,%ecx
10752: 48 89 f2 mov %rsi,%rdx
10755: 48 8b 77 08 mov 0x8(%rdi),%rsi
10759: e9 22 ff ff ff jmpq 10680 <qht_lookup_custom>
1075e: 66 90 xchg %ax,%ax
We get:

The old map's bucket locks are being unlocked *after*
that same old map has been passed to RCU for destruction.
This is a bug that can cause a segfault, since there's
no guarantee that the deletion will be deferred (e.g.
there may be no concurrent readers).
The segfault is easily triggered in RHEL6/CentOS6 with qht-test,
particularly on a single-core system or by pinning qht-test
to a single core.
Fix it by unlocking the map's bucket locks right after having
published the new map, and (crucially) before marking the map
for deletion via call_rcu().
While at it, expand qht_do_resize() to atomically do (1) a reset,
(2) a resize, or (3) a reset+resize. This simplifies the calling
code, since the new function (qht_do_resize_reset()) acquires
and releases the buckets' locks.
Note that no qht_do_reset inline is provided, since it would have
no users--qht_reset() already performs a reset without taking
ht->lock.

ThreadSanitizer detects a possible race between reading/writing the
hashes. The ordering semantics are already documented for QHT however
for true C11 compliance we should use relaxed atomic primitives for
accesses that are done across threads. On x86 this slightly changes to
the code to not do a load/compare in a single instruction leading to a
slight performance degradation.
Running 'taskset -c 0 tests/qht-bench -n 1 -d 10' (i.e. all lookups) 10
times, we get:

So far, QHT functions assume that the passed qht has previously been
initialized--otherwise they segfault.
This patch makes an exception for qht_statistics_init, with the goal
of simplifying calling code. For instance, qht_statistics_init is
called from the 'info jit' dump, and given that under KVM the TB qht
is never initialized, we get a segfault. Thus, instead of complicating
the 'info jit' code with additional checks, let's allow passing an
uninitialized qht to qht_statistics_init.
While at it, add a test for this to test-qht.
Before the patch (for $ qemu -enable-kvm [...]):
(qemu) info jit
[...]
direct jump count 0 (0%) (2 jumps=0 0%)
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
After the patch the "TB hash buckets", "TB hash occupancy"
and "TB hash avg chain" lines are omitted.

This is a fast, scalable chained hash table with optional auto-resizing, allowing
reads that are concurrent with reads, and reads/writes that are concurrent
with writes to separate buckets.
A hash table with these features will be necessary for the scalability
of the ongoing MTTCG work; before those changes arrive we can already
benefit from the single-threaded speedup that qht also provides.
