e97e1cf464 trace2: add a public function for getting the SID
Add a public wrapper, trace2_session_id(), around tr2_sid_get(), which
is intended to be private trace2 implementation.

3d3adaad91 trace2: teach Git to log environment variables
Via trace2, Git can already log interesting config parameters (see the
trace2_cmd_list_config() function). However, this can grant an
incomplete picture because many config parameters also allow overrides
via environment variables.

To allow for more complete logs, we add a new trace2_cmd_list_env_vars()
function and supporting implementation, modeled after the pre-existing
config param logging implementation.

6c51cb525d trace2: move doc to trace2.h
Move the functions documentation from
Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt to trace2.h as it's easier for the
developers to find the usage information beside the code instead of looking
for it in another doc file.

Only the functions documentation section is removed from
Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt as the file is full of
details that seemed more appropriate to be in a separate doc file
as it is, with a link to the doc file added in the trace2.h.
Also the functions doc is removed to avoid having redundandt info which
will be hard to keep syncronized with the documentation in the header file.

e4b75d6a1d trace2: rename environment variables to GIT_TRACE2*
For an environment variable that is supposed to be set by users, the
GIT_TR2* env vars are just too unclear, inconsistent, and ugly.

Most of the established GIT_* environment variables don't use
abbreviations, and in case of the few that do (GIT_DIR,
GIT_COMMON_DIR, GIT_DIFF_OPTS) it's quite obvious what the
abbreviations (DIR and OPTS) stand for.  But what does TR stand for?
Track, traditional, trailer, transaction, transfer, transformation,
transition, translation, transplant, transport, traversal, tree,
trigger, truncate, trust, or ...?!

The trace2 facility, as the '2' suffix in its name suggests, is
supposed to eventually supercede Git's original trace facility.  It's
reasonable to expect that the corresponding environment variables
follow suit, and after the original GIT_TRACE variables they are
called GIT_TRACE2; there is no such thing is 'GIT_TR'.

All trace2-specific config variables are, very sensibly, in the
'trace2' section, not in 'tr2'.

OTOH, we don't gain anything at all by omitting the last three
characters of "trace" from the names of these environment variables.

So let's rename all GIT_TR2* environment variables to GIT_TRACE2*,
before they make their way into a stable release.

5b2d1c0c6e Merge branch 'jh/trace2-sid-fix'
Polishing of the new trace2 facility continues.  The system-level
configuration can specify site-wide trace2 settings, which can be
overridden with per-user configuration and environment variables.

* jh/trace2-sid-fix:
  trace2: fixup access problem on /etc/gitconfig in read_very_early_config
  trace2: update docs to describe system/global config settings
  trace2: make SIDs more unique
  trace2: clarify UTC datetime formatting
  trace2: report peak memory usage of the process
  trace2: use system/global config for default trace2 settings
  config: add read_very_early_config()
  trace2: find exec-dir before trace2 initialization
  trace2: add absolute elapsed time to start event
  trace2: refactor setting process starting time
  config: initialize opts structure in repo_read_config()

bce9db6de9 trace2: use system/global config for default trace2 settings
Teach git to read the system and global config files for
default Trace2 settings.  This allows system-wide Trace2 settings to
be installed and inherited to make it easier to manage a collection of
systems.

The original GIT_TR2* environment variables are loaded afterwards and
can be used to override the system settings.

Only the system and global config files are used.  Repo and worktree
local config files are ignored.  Likewise, the "-c" command line
arguments are also ignored.  These limits are for performance reasons.

(1) For users not using Trace2, there should be minimal overhead to
detect that Trace2 is not enabled.  In particular, Trace2 should not
allocate lots of otherwise unused data strucutres.

(2) For accurate performance measurements, Trace2 should be initialized
as early in the git process as possible, and before most of the normal
git process initialization (which involves discovering the .git directory
and reading a hierarchy of config files).

ad006fe419 trace2: NULL is not allowed for va_list
Some compilers don't allow NULL to be passed for a va_list,
and e.g. "gcc (Raspbian 6.3.0-18+rpi1+deb9u1) 6.3.0 20170516"
errors out like this:
 trace2/tr2_tgt_event.c:193:18:
   error: invalid operands to binary &&
   (have ‘int’ and ‘va_list {aka __va_list}’)
    if (fmt && *fmt && ap) {
                       ^^
I couldn't find any hints that va_list and pointers can be mixed,
and no hints that they can't either. Morten Welinder comments:

"C99, Section 7.15, simply says that va_list "is an object type suitable for
holding information needed by the macros va_start, va_end, and
va_copy". So clearly not guaranteed to be mixable with pointers...

The portable solution is to use "va_list" everywhere in the callchain.
As a consequence, both trace2_region_enter_fl() and trace2_region_leave_fl()
now take a variable argument list.

353d3d77f4 trace2: collect Windows-specific process information
Add platform-specific interface to log information about the current
process.

On Windows, this interface is used to indicate whether the git process
is running under a debugger and list names of the process ancestors.

Information for other platforms is left for a future effort.

ee4512ed48 trace2: create new combined trace facility
Create a new unified tracing facility for git.  The eventual intent is to
replace the current trace_printf* and trace_performance* routines with a
unified set of git_trace2* routines.

In addition to the usual printf-style API, trace2 provides higer-level
event verbs with fixed-fields allowing structured data to be written.
This makes post-processing and analysis easier for external tools.

Trace2 defines 3 output targets.  These are set using the environment
variables "GIT_TR2", "GIT_TR2_PERF", and "GIT_TR2_EVENT".  These may be
set to "1" or to an absolute pathname (just like the current GIT_TRACE).

* GIT_TR2 is intended to be a replacement for GIT_TRACE and logs command
  summary data.

* GIT_TR2_PERF is intended as a replacement for GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE.
  It extends the output with columns for the command process, thread,
  repo, absolute and relative elapsed times.  It reports events for
  child process start/stop, thread start/stop, and per-thread function
  nesting.

* GIT_TR2_EVENT is a new structured format. It writes event data as a
  series of JSON records.

Calls to trace2 functions log to any of the 3 output targets enabled
without the need to call different trace_printf* or trace_performance*
routines.
