 * src/inc/xtc_stats.h
 *      Runtime statistics primitives: counters, gauges, histograms.
 *      Designed to be cheap to update on the hot path (single atomic
 *      per-CPU shard for counters; one _Atomic for gauges) and
 *      non-obscuring under perf inspection.
 *
 *      A counter accumulates events.  Per-CPU sharded so that
 *      xtc_counter_inc compiles to one cache-line-local atomic add.
 *      Cross-CPU summing happens only on read, which is the slow path.
 *
 *      A gauge holds a current value (depth, queue length, etc.).
 *      Single _Atomic int64; reads are wait-free, writes are atomic
 *      store.  For low-frequency-update gauges this is fine.
 *
 *      A histogram tracks a value distribution and answers quantile
 *      queries (p50/p99/p999).  The current implementation wraps the
 *      HDR-style hist used by the conformance bench, with per-CPU
 *      shards so concurrent record() calls don't contend.  Quantile
 *      queries merge shards under a read lock.
 *
 *      A registry walks every metric for periodic dumps to logs or
 *      a Prometheus-style scrape endpoint.

/*
 * Run libxtc's host-tuning advisor: a battery of cheap, read-only
 * probes (CPU governor, intel_pstate, transparent hugepages, vm
 * swappiness, sched autogroup, io_uring-under-seccomp) that each log
 * one XTC_LOG_INFO line to the xtc_log_default() sink when the host is
 * NOT in the recommended state for a low-latency runtime.  Silent on a
 * well-tuned host; Linux-only (a no-op elsewhere); never writes /proc
 * or /sys.
 *
 * This is the ONE diagnostic libxtc itself emits through xtc_log, and
 * it is the intended way to get those lines into an application's log
 * sink on the xtc_exec / xtc_loop bring-up path (xtc_app_start already
 * calls it by default; a consumer that stands up carriers via
 * xtc_exec_init should call xtc_tuning_check() once at startup, after
 * installing its xtc_log_set_default sink, to receive the advisories).
 * Otherwise xtc_log is application-fill: libxtc streams no other
 * internal log lines today.  Safe to call more than once.
