to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This change implements 2 optimizations of sync clocks that reduce memory consumption:
Use previously unused first level block space to store clock elements.
Currently a clock for 100 threads consumes 3 512-byte blocks:
2 64-bit second level blocks to store clock elements
+1 32-bit first level block to store indices to second level blocks
Only 8 bytes of the first level block are actually used.
With this change such clock consumes only 2 blocks.
Share similar clocks differing only by a single clock entry for the current thread.
When a thread does several release operations on fresh sync objects without intervening
acquire operations in between (e.g. initialization of several fields in ctor),
the resulting clocks differ only by a single entry for the current thread.
This change reuses a single clock for such release operations. The current thread time
(which is different for different clocks) is stored in dirty entries.
We are experiencing issues with a large program that eats all 64M clock blocks
(32GB of non-flushable memory) and crashes with dense allocator overflow.
Max number of threads in the program is ~170 which is currently quite unfortunate
(consume 4 blocks per clock). Currently it crashes after consuming 60+ GB of memory.
The first optimization brings clock block consumption down to ~40M and
allows the program to work. The second optimization further reduces block consumption
to "modest" 16M blocks (~8GB of RAM) and reduces overall RAM consumption to ~30GB.
Measurements on another real world C++ RPC benchmark show RSS reduction
from 3.491G to 3.186G and a modest speedup of ~5%.
Go parallel client/server HTTP benchmark:
https://github.com/golang/benchmarks/blob/master/http/http.go
shows RSS reduction from 320MB to 240MB and a few percent speedup.

1. Add SyncClock::ResetImpl which removes code
duplication between ctor and Reset.
2. Move SyncClock::Resize to SyncClock methods,
currently it's defined between ThreadClock methods.

Currently we either define SANITIZER_GO for Go or don't define it at all for C++.
This works fine with preprocessor (ifdef/ifndef/defined), but does not work
for C++ if statements (e.g. if (SANITIZER_GO) {...}). Also this is different
from majority of SANITIZER_FOO macros which are always defined to either 0 or 1.
Always define SANITIZER_GO to either 0 or 1.
This allows to use SANITIZER_GO in expressions and in flag default values.
Also remove kGoMode and kCppMode, which were meant to be used in expressions,
but they are not defined in sanitizer_common code, so SANITIZER_GO become prevalent.
Also convert some preprocessor checks to C++ if's or ternary expressions.
Majority of this change is done mechanically with:
sed "s#ifdef SANITIZER_GO#if SANITIZER_GO#g"
sed "s#ifndef SANITIZER_GO#if \!SANITIZER_GO#g"
sed "s#defined(SANITIZER_GO)#SANITIZER_GO#g"

On OS X, GCD worker threads are created without a call to pthread_create. We need to properly register these threads with ThreadCreate and ThreadStart. This patch uses a libpthread API (`pthread_introspection_hook_install`) to get notifications about new threads and about threads that are about to be destroyed.

Vector clocks is the most actively allocated object in tsan runtime.
Current internal allocator is not scalable enough to handle allocation
of clocks in scalable way (too small caches). This changes transforms
clocks to 2-level array with 512-byte blocks. Since all blocks are of
the same size, it's possible to cache them more efficiently in per-thread caches.

The new storage (MetaMap) is based on direct shadow (instead of a hashmap + per-block lists).
This solves a number of problems:
- eliminates quadratic behaviour in SyncTab::GetAndLock (https://code.google.com/p/thread-sanitizer/issues/detail?id=26)
- eliminates contention in SyncTab
- eliminates contention in internal allocator during allocation of sync objects
- removes a bunch of ad-hoc code in java interface
- reduces java shadow from 2x to 1/2x
- allows to memorize heap block meta info for Java and Go
- allows to cleanup sync object meta info for Go
- which in turn enabled deadlock detector for Go

Status:
The tool is known to work on large real-life applications, but still has quite a few rough edges.
Nothing is guaranteed yet.
The tool works on x86_64 Linux.
Support for 64-bit MacOS 10.7+ is planned for late 2012.
Support for 32-bit OSes is doable, but problematic and not yet planed.
Further commits coming:
- tests
- makefiles
- documentation
- clang driver patch
The code was previously developed at http://code.google.com/p/data-race-test/source/browse/trunk/v2/
by Dmitry Vyukov and Kostya Serebryany with contributions from
