+//
+// This file implements the native bits of the Datadog::Profiling::Collectors::CpuAndWallTimeWorker class
+
+// ---
+// Here be dragons: This component is quite fiddly and probably one of the more complex in the profiler as it deals with
+// multiple threads, signal handlers, global state, etc.
+//
+// ## Design notes for this class:
+//
+// ### Constraints
+//
+// Currently, sampling Ruby threads requires calling Ruby VM APIs that are only safe to call while holding on to the
+// global VM lock (and are not async-signal safe -- cannot be called from a signal handler).
+//
+// @ivoanjo: As a note, I don't think we should think of this constraint as set in stone. Since can reach into the Ruby
+// internals, we may be able to figure out a way of overcoming it. But it's definitely going to be hard so for now
+// we're considering it as a given.
+//
+// ### Flow for triggering CPU/Wall-time samples
+//
+// The flow for triggering samples is as follows:
+//
+// 1. Inside the `run_sampling_trigger_loop` function (running in the `CpuAndWallTimeWorker` background thread),
+// a `SIGPROF` signal gets sent to the current process.
+//
+// 2. The `handle_sampling_signal` signal handler function gets called to handle the `SIGPROF` signal.
+//
+//   Which thread the signal handler function gets called on by the operating system is quite important. We need to perform
+// an operation -- calling the `rb_postponed_job_register_one` API -- that can only be called from the thread that
+// is holding on to the global VM lock. So this is the thread we're "hoping" our signal lands on.
+//
+//   The signal never lands on the `CpuAndWallTimeWorker` background thread because we explicitly block it off from that
+// thread in `block_sigprof_signal_handler_from_running_in_current_thread`.
+//
+//   If the signal lands on a thread that is not holding onto the global VM lock, we can't proceed to the next step,
+// and we need to restart the sampling flow from step 1. (There's still quite a few improvements we can make here,
+// but this is the current state of the implementation).
+//
+// 3. Inside `handle_sampling_signal`, if it's getting executed by the Ruby thread that is holding the global VM lock,
+// we can call `rb_postponed_job_register_one` to ask the Ruby VM to call our `sample_from_postponed_job` function
+// "as soon as it can".
+//
+// 4. The Ruby VM calls our `sample_from_postponed_job` from a thread holding the global VM lock. A sample is recorded by
+// calling `thread_context_collector_sample`.
+//
+// ### TracePoints and Forking
+//
+// When the Ruby VM forks, the CPU/Wall-time profiling stops naturally because it's triggered by a background thread
+// that doesn't get automatically restarted by the VM on the child process. (The profiler does trigger its restart at
+// some point -- see `Profiling::Tasks::Setup` for details).
+//
+// But this doesn't apply to any `TracePoint`s this class may use, which will continue to be active. Thus, we need to
+// always remember consider this case of -- the worker thread may not be alive but the `TracePoint`s can continue to
+// trigger samples.
