Main goal of memory allocation profiling patchset is to provide accounting that is cheap enough to run in production. To achieve that we inject counters using codetags at the allocation call sites to account every time allocation is made. This injection allows us to perform accounting efficiently because injected counters are immediately available as opposed to the alternative methods, such as using _RET_IP_, which would require counter lookup and appropriate locking that makes accounting much more expensive. This method requires all allocation functions to inject separate counters at their call sites so that their callers can be individually accounted. Counter injection is implemented by allocation hooks which should wrap all allocation functions. Inlined functions which perform allocations but do not use allocation hooks are directly charged for the allocations they perform. In most cases these functions are just specialized allocation wrappers used from multiple places to allocate objects of a specific type. It would be more useful to do the accounting at their call sites instead. Instrument these helpers to do accounting at the call site. Simple inlined allocation wrappers are converted directly into macros. More complex allocators or allocators with documentation are converted into _noprof versions and allocation hooks are added. This allows memory allocation profiling mechanism to charge allocations to the callers of these functions.
