+
+// Why this exists:
+//
+// The Datadog::Profiling::Loader exists because when Ruby loads a native extension (using `require`), it uses
+// `dlopen(..., RTLD_LAZY | RTLD_GLOBAL)` (https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/67950a4c0a884bdb78d9beb4405ebf7459229b21/dln.c#L362).
+// This means that every symbol exposed directly or indirectly by that native extension becomes visible to every other
+// extension in the Ruby process. This can cause issues, see https://github.com/rubyjs/mini_racer/pull/179.
+//
+// Instead of `RTLD_LAZY | RTLD_GLOBAL`, we want to call `dlopen` with `RTLD_LAZY | RTLD_LOCAL | RTLD_DEEPBIND` when
+// loading the profiling native extension, to avoid leaking any unintended symbols (`RTLD_LOCAL`) and avoid picking
+// up other's symbols (`RTLD_DEEPBIND`).
+//
+// But Ruby's extension loading mechanism is not configurable -- there's no way to tell it to use different flags when
+// calling `dlopen`. To get around this, this file (ddtrace_profiling_loader.c) introduces another extension
+// (profiling loader) which has only a single responsibility: mimic Ruby's extension loading mechanism, but when calling
+// `dlopen` use a different set of flags.
+// This idea was shamelessly stolen from @lloeki's work in https://github.com/rubyjs/mini_racer/pull/179, big thanks!
+//
+// Extra note: Currently (May 2022), that we know of, the profiling native extension only exposes one potentially
+// problematic symbol: `rust_eh_personality` (coming from libdatadog).
+// Future versions of Rust have been patched not to expose this
+// (see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/95604#issuecomment-1108563434) so we may want to revisit the need
+// for this loader in the future, and perhaps delete it if we no longer require its services :)

+# Profiling Native Extension Design
+
+The profiling native extension is used to:
+
+1. Implement features which are expensive (in terms of resources) or otherwise impossible to implement using Ruby code.
+2. Bridge between Ruby-specific profiling features and [`libdatadog`](https://github.com/DataDog/libdatadog), a Rust-based
+library with common profiling functionality.
+
+Due to (1), this extension is quite coupled with MRI Ruby ("C Ruby") internals, and is not intended to support other rubies such as
+JRuby or TruffleRuby. When below we say "Ruby", read it as "MRI Ruby".
+
+## Disabling
+
+The profiling native extension can be disabled by setting `DD_PROFILING_NO_EXTENSION=true` when installing
+the gem. Setting `DD_PROFILING_NO_EXTENSION` at installation time skips compilation of the extension entirely.
+
+(If you're a customer and needed to use this, please tell us why on <https://github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-rb/issues/new>.)
+
+In past releases, it was possible for the profiler to run without the native extension, but that's no longer the case,
+and disabling the extension will disable profiling.
+
+## Who is this page for?
+
+**This documentation is intended to be used by dd-trace-rb developers. Please see the `docs/` folder for user-level
+documentation.**
+
+## Must not block or break users that cannot use it
+
+The profiling native extension is (and must always be) designed to **not cause failures** during gem installation, even
+if some features, Ruby versions, or operating systems are not supported.
+
+E.g. the extension must not break installation on Ruby 2.1 (or the oldest Ruby version we support at the time) on 64-bit ARM macOS,
+even if at run time it will effectively do nothing for such a setup.
+
+We have a CI setup to help validate this, but this is really important to keep in mind when adding to or changing the
+existing codebase.
+
+## Memory leaks and Interaction with Ruby VM APIs
+
+When adding to or changing the native extension, we must always consider what API calls can lead to Ruby exceptions to
+be raised, and whether there are is dynamically-allocated memory that can be leaked if that happens.
+
+(When a Ruby exception is raised, the VM will use `setjmp` and `longjmp` to jump back in the stack and thus skip
+our clean-up code, like in a Ruby-level exception.)
+
+We avoid issues using a combination of:
+
+* Avoiding dynamic allocation as much as possible
+* Getting all needed data and doing all validations before doing any dynamic allocations
+* Avoiding calling Ruby VM APIs after doing dynamic allocations
+* Wrapping dynamic allocations into Ruby GC-managed objects (using `TypedData_Wrap_Struct`), so that Ruby will manage
+  their lifetime and call `free` when the GC-managed object is no longer being referenced
+* Using [`rb_protect` and similar APIs](https://silverhammermba.github.io/emberb/c/?#rescue) to run cleanup code on
+  exception cases
+
+Non-exhaustive list of APIs that cause exceptions to be raised:
+
+* `Check_TypedStruct`, `Check_Type`, `ENFORCE_TYPE`
+* `rb_funcall`
+* `rb_thread_call_without_gvl`
+* [Numeric conversion APIs, e.g. `NUM2LONG`, `NUM2INT`, etc.](https://silverhammermba.github.io/emberb/c/?#translation)
+* Our `char_slice_from_ruby_string` helper
+
+## Usage of private VM headers
+
+To implement some of the features below, we sometimes require access to private Ruby header files (that describe VM
+internal types, structures and functions).
+
+Because these private header files are not included in regular Ruby installations, we have two different workarounds:
+
+1. for Ruby versions >= 2.6 we make use use the Ruby private MJIT header
+2. for Ruby versions < 2.6 (legacy Rubies) we make use of the `debase-ruby_core_source` gem
+
+Functions which make use of these headers are defined in the <private_vm_api_acccess.c> file.
+
+There is currently no way for disabling usage of the private MJIT header for Ruby 2.6+.
+
+**Important Note**: Our medium/long-term plan is to stop relying on all private Ruby headers, and instead request and
+contribute upstream changes so that they become official public VM APIs.
+
+### Approach 1: Using the Ruby private MJIT header
+
+Ruby versions >= 2.6 introduced a JIT compiler called MJIT. This compiler does not directly generate machine code;
+instead it generates C code and uses the system C compiler to turn it into machine code.
+
+The generated C code `#include`s a private header -- which we reference as "the MJIT header" everywhere.
+The MJIT header gets shipped with all MJIT-enabled Rubies and includes the layout of many internal VM structures;
+and of course the intention is that it is only used by the Ruby MJIT compiler.
+
+This header is placed inside the `include/` directory in a Ruby installation, and is named for that specific Ruby
+version. e.g. `rb_mjit_min_header-2.7.4.h`.
+
+### Approach 2: Using the `debase-ruby_core_source` gem
+
+The [`debase-ruby_core_source`](https://github.com/ruby-debug/debase-ruby_core_source) contains almost no code;
+instead, it just contains per-Ruby-version folders with the private VM headers (`.h`) files for that version.
+
+Thus, even though a regular Ruby installation does not include these files, we can access the copy inside this gem.
+
+## Feature: Getting thread CPU-time clock_ids
+
+* **OS support**: Linux
+
+To enable CPU-time profiling, we use the `pthread_getcpuclockid(pthread_t thread, clockid_t *clockid)` C function to
+obtain a `clockid_t` that can then be used with the `Process.clock_gettime` method (or directly with the
+`clock_gettime()` C function).
+
+The challenge with using `pthread_getcpuclockid()` is that we need to get the `pthread_t` for a given Ruby `Thread`
+object. We previously did this with a weird combination of monkey patching and `pthread_self()` (effectively patching
+every `Thread` to run `pthread_self()` at initialization time and stash that value somewhere), but this had a number
+of downsides.
+
+The approach we use in the profiling native extension is to reach inside the internal structure of the `Thread` object,
+and extract the `pthread_t` that Ruby itself keeps, but does not expose. This is implemented in the `pthread_id_for()`
+function in `private_vm_api_acccess.c`. Thus, using this trick we can at any point in execution go from a `Thread`
+object into the `clockid_t` that we need.
+
+Note that `pthread_getcpuclockid()` is not available on macOS (nor, obviously, on Windows), and hence this feature
+is currently Linux-specific. Thus, in the <clock_id_from_pthread.c> file we implement the feature for supported Ruby
+setups but if something is missing we instead compile in <clock_id_noop.c> that includes a no-op implementation of the
+feature.
+
+## Fork-safety
+
+It's common for Ruby applications to create child processes via the use of `fork`. For instance, this strategy is used
+by the puma webserver and the resque job processing tool.
+
+Thus, the profiler needs to be designed to take this into account. I'll call out two important parts of this design:
+
+1. Automatically propagate profiler to child processes. To make onboarding easier, we monkey patch the Ruby `fork` APIs
+so that the profiler is automatically restarted in child processes. This way, the user only needs to start profiling at
+the beginning of their application, and automatically forks are profiled as well.
+
+2. The profiler must ensure correctness and stability even if the application forks. There must be no impact on the
+application or incorrect data generated.
+
+### Fork-safety for libdatadog
+
+Since libdatadog is built in native code (Rust), special care needs to be take to consider how we're using it and how
+it can be affected by the use of `fork`.
+
+* Profile-related APIs: `Profile_new` and `Profile_add` and `Profile_free` are only called with the Ruby Global VM Lock
+being held. Thus, if Ruby APIs are being used for fork, this prevents any concurrency between profile mutation and
+forking, because if we’re holding the lock, then no other thread can call into the fork APIs.
+(Calling libc `fork()` directly from a native extension is possible but would break the VM as well, since it does need
+to do some of its own work when forking happens, so we’ll ignore that one)
+
+* Exporter-related APIs: Explicitly to make sure we had no issues with forking, we create a new `CancellationToken_new`
+and `ProfileExporterV3_new` for every report. We do release the Global VM Lock during exporting, so it's possible for
+forking and exporting to be concurrent.
+
+  Both the CancellationToken and ProfileExporter are only referenced on the stack of the thread doing the exporting, so
+  they will not be reused in the child process after the fork. In the worst case, if a report is concurrent with a fork,
+  then it's possible a small amount of memory will not be cleaned up in the child process.
+
+  Because there is no leftover undefined state, we guarantee correctness for the exporter APIs.
