Emilio G. Cota e6c5829950 qht: constify qht_lookup
seqlock_read_begin takes a const param since c04649eeea
("seqlock: constify seqlock_read_begin", 2018-08-23), so
we can constify the entire lookup.

Emilio G. Cota 78255ba2cc qht: drop ht argument from qht iterators
Accessing the HT from an iterator results almost always
in a deadlock. Given that only one qht-internal function
uses this argument, drop it from the interface.

Emilio G. Cota 69d55e9cc2 qht: add qht_iter_remove
This currently has no users, but the use case is so common that I
think we must support it.

Note that without the appended we cannot safely remove a set of
elements; a 2-step approach (i.e. qht_iter first, keep track of
the to-be-deleted elements, and then a bunch of qht_remove calls)
would be racy, since between the iteration and the removals other
threads might insert additional elements.

Emilio G. Cota fe9959a275 qsp: QEMU's Synchronization Profiler
The goal of this module is to profile synchronization primitives (i.e.
mutexes, recursive mutexes and condition variables) so that scalability
issues can be quickly diagnosed.

Sync primitives are profiled by QSP based on the vaddr of the object accessed
as well as the call site (file:line_nr). That means the same object called
from two different call sites will be tracked in separate entries, which
might be reported together or separately (see subsequent commit on
call site coalescing).

Some perf numbers:

Host: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz
Command: taskset -c 0 tests/atomic_add-bench -d 5 -m

- Before: 54.80 Mops/s
- After:  54.75 Mops/s

That is, a negligible slowdown due to the now indirect call to
qemu_mutex_lock. Note that using a branch instead of an indirect
call introduces a more severe slowdown (53.65 Mops/s, i.e. 2% slowdown).

Enabling the profiler (with -p, added in this series) is more interesting:

- No profiling: 54.75 Mops/s
- W/ profiling: 12.53 Mops/s

That is, a 4.36X slowdown.

We can break down this slowdown by removing the get_clock calls or
the entry lookup:

- No profiling:     54.75 Mops/s
- W/o get_clock:    25.37 Mops/s
- W/o entry lookup: 19.30 Mops/s
- W/ profiling:     12.53 Mops/s

Emilio G. Cota 32359d529f qht: return existing entry when qht_insert fails
The meaning of "existing" is now changed to "matches in hash and
ht->cmp result". This is saner than just checking the pointer value.

Emilio G. Cota 61b8cef1d4 qht: require a default comparison function
qht_lookup now uses the default cmp function. qht_lookup_custom is defined
to retain the old behaviour, that is a cmp function is explicitly provided.

qht_insert will gain use of the default cmp in the next patch.

Note that we move qht_lookup_custom's @func to be the last argument,
which makes the new qht_lookup as simple as possible.
Instead of this (i.e. keeping @func 2nd):
0000000000010750 <qht_lookup>:
   10750:       89 d1                   mov    %edx,%ecx
   10752:       48 89 f2                mov    %rsi,%rdx
   10755:       48 8b 77 08             mov    0x8(%rdi),%rsi
   10759:       e9 22 ff ff ff          jmpq   10680 <qht_lookup_custom>
   1075e:       66 90                   xchg   %ax,%ax

We get:
0000000000010740 <qht_lookup>:
   10740:       48 8b 4f 08             mov    0x8(%rdi),%rcx
   10744:       e9 37 ff ff ff          jmpq   10680 <qht_lookup_custom>
   10749:       0f 1f 80 00 00 00 00    nopl   0x0(%rax)

Paolo Bonzini 34506b30e4 util/qht: Document memory ordering assumptions
It is naturally expected that some memory ordering should be provided
around qht_insert() and qht_lookup(). Document these assumptions in the
header file and put some comments in the source to denote how that
memory ordering requirements are fulfilled.

Emilio G. Cota 2e11264aaf qht: QEMU's fast, resizable and scalable Hash Table
This is a fast, scalable chained hash table with optional auto-resizing, allowing
reads that are concurrent with reads, and reads/writes that are concurrent
with writes to separate buckets.

A hash table with these features will be necessary for the scalability
of the ongoing MTTCG work; before those changes arrive we can already
benefit from the single-threaded speedup that qht also provides.
