Anis Elleuch 9531cddb06 Add Profiler Admin API (#6463)
Two handlers are added to admin API to enable profiling and disable
profiling of a server in a standalone mode, or all nodes in the
distributed mode.

/minio/admin/profiling/start/{cpu,block,mem}:
  - Start profiling and return starting JSON results, e.g. one
    node is offline.

/minio/admin/profiling/download:
  - Stop the on-going profiling task
  - Stream a zip file which contains all profiling files that can
    be later inspected by go tool pprof

profile

Simple profiling support package for Go

Build Status GoDoc

installation

go get github.com/pkg/profile

usage

Enabling profiling in your application is as simple as one line at the top of your main function

import "github.com/pkg/profile"

func main() {
    defer profile.Start().Stop()
    ...
}

options

What to profile is controlled by config value passed to profile.Start. By default CPU profiling is enabled.

import "github.com/pkg/profile"

func main() {
    // p.Stop() must be called before the program exits to
    // ensure profiling information is written to disk.
    p := profile.Start(profile.MemProfile, profile.ProfilePath("."), profile.NoShutdownHook)
    ...
}

Several convenience package level values are provided for cpu, memory, and block (contention) profiling.

For more complex options, consult the documentation.
