// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Usage documentation
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// Overview:
// These functions provide a means to control the metadata attached to samples
// collected by the stack sampling profiler. SampleMetadataScope controls the
// scope covered by the metadata (thread, process).
//
// Any samples collected by the sampling profiler will include the active
// metadata. This enables us to later analyze targeted subsets of samples
// (e.g. those collected during paint or layout).
//
// For example:
//
//   void DidStartLoad() {
//     is_loading_metadata_.Set(1);
//   }
//
//   void DidFinishLoad() {
//     is_loading_metadata_.Remove();
//   }
//
//   base::SampleMetadata is_loading_metadata_;
//
// Alternatively, ScopedSampleMetadata can be used to ensure that the metadata
// is removed correctly.
//
// For example:
//
//   void DoExpensiveWork() {
//     base::ScopedSampleMetadata metadata("xyz", 1);
//     if (...) {
//       ...
//       if (...) {
//         ...
//         return;
//       }
//     }
//     ...
//   }
