I'm currently developing a new version of the indexed memprof format
where we deduplicate call stacks in IndexedAllocationInfo::CallStack
and IndexedMemProfRecord::CallSites. We refer to call stacks with
integer IDs, namely CallStackId, just as we refer to Frame with
FrameId. The deduplication will cut down the profile file size by 80%
in a large memprof file of mine.
As a step toward the goal, this patch teaches
IndexedMemProfRecord::{serialize,deserialize} to speak Version2. A
subsequent patch will add Version2 support to llvm-profdata.
The essense of the patch is to replace the serialization of a call
stack, a vector of FrameIDs, with that of a CallStackId. That is:
const IndexedAllocationInfo &N = ...;
...
LE.write<uint64_t>(N.CallStack.size());
for (const FrameId &Id : N.CallStack)
LE.write<FrameId>(Id);
becomes:
LE.write<CallStackId>(N.CSId);
