Summary

This is needed for the continuation of D46504,
to be able to store the timings.

The floating-point values are dumped with no precision loss.

See dependent differential D46602 for details/use-case.

@lebedev.ri LLVM already has facilities for outputting statistics in JSON, it seems that would be sufficient for your purposes?
I did something similar for the static analyzer in https://reviews.llvm.org/D43131

YAML != JSON.
I did see all that TimerGroup stuff.
I will take a second look, but the dumpVal() change will still be needed either way.

  1. Drop CSV stuff
  2. Add constructor from previously-collected StringMap<TimeRecord>
  3. Make printJSONValues() public.
  4. Dump floating-point values in scientific format with full precision.

Add lock to now-public printJSONValues().

I have no understanding of the static TimerGroupList,
but this is symmetrical with other [public] TimerGroup::*print* methods.

I wonder why JSON? What kind of a tool do folks use to process the outputs of printJSONValue? Is there anything existing or is JSON used "just in case"? I personally use either spreadsheets, python or shell when I deal with this kind of data, and all three of them can work reasonably well with CSV (plus the data is pretty simple).

  • Use sane (not the same as the one right before..) suffix for when json-printing mem usage. Admittedly, i haven't tried it, but it just does not make sense otherwise.

Ping.
Any thoughts on these Timer changes?

I see four separate changes: s/.sys/mem one (can be committed without review), exposing printJSONValues and consequent adding of a lock, adding a constructor accepting a map, and fixing formatting in printJSONValue. All four look good to me, but probably should be reviewed separately.

lib/Support/Timer.cpp
385

This change seems unrelated to the new constructor accepting map, right?

403

That's independent from this change, right?

Thank you for taking a look!

@alexfh & @george.karpenkov Thanks for reviewing those!
Not sure yet whether i will land them right away, or wait for clang-tidy part.

I think it's better to land, as otherwise you risk merge conflicts, and implicit conflicts (git reports no errors, but the resulting code is bad) can be very annoying.
