* Fix double buffer data race - fixes relatively rare data race in double buffering scheme In `rocprofiler::buffer::instance::emplace`, the `container::record_header_buffer::get_record_headers()` function returned a `std::vector<rocprofiler_record_header_t*>` and then invoked callback to tool. It was possible for that callback to still be executing while the buffer was being updated. This potentially introduced a scenario where the rocprofiler_record_header_t* was modified (or corrupted) before the tool processed the record. In rocprofv3, this would result in a "future" buffer record showing up among "past" buffer records. E.g., correlation id sequence of 1-15 where the buffer flushes after five values, could result in this during processing: | | | | | | |:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:| | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 15 | | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | Because buffer A (of double buffering scheme) originally containing corr ids 1-5 stalled after process corr id 4 (e.g. write to disk), buffer B filled up with 6-10 and started flushing, causing a switch back to buffer A, and buffer A was filled with 11-15 by the time callback accessed what was originally corr id 5 but was now updated to corr id 15. * Update CHANGELOG * misc minor cleanup --------- Co-authored-by: Jonathan R.
