A hash calculated via FNV-1a algorithm is introduced in ihipModule_t, the
internal of hipModule_t. The hash is used by HIP module APIs such as
- read_agent_global_from_module
to determine whether the agent-scope globals for a module have been iterated.
This commit fixes one issue that applications which load / unload modules
frequently would occasionally fail. After deep investigation of the issue it
turns out the old implementation in read_agent_global_from_module uses
hipModule_t as the key, which is not robust enough, as hipModule_t instances
are allocated dynamically so there are cases that one memory address may be
used by multiple hipModule_t instances. The real solution is to introduce a
uniquely identifiable hash for the code object associated with the HIP module.
And that's the rationale behind this commit.
