Thanks for the review!
I already asked but I forgot what was the answer: why isn't it flagged by linter? which auto-formatter should I use to make sure that code complies with repo coding standards ?

We're probably missing an eslint config for it. https://eslint.org/docs/latest/rules/object-curly-newline appears to be what we're looking for?

Instead of resetting here, I'd rather keep a last sample count and compare to it
const sampleCount = this._profilerState[kSampleCount] if (sampleCount != this._lastSampleCount){... } this._lastSampleCount = sampleCount This way JS code never writes to it, only reads it.

Hide functionality behind DD_PROFILING_EXPERIMENTAL_CODEHOTSPOTS_ENABLED and DD_PROFILING_EXPERIMENTAL_ENDPOINT_COLLECTION_ENABLED flags. Profiler tracks changes of active span by subscribing to async hooks before channel and to AsyncResourceStorage enter channel that notifies when current store is changed with enterWith/run. Profiler remember previous span and previous started spans, upon change of active span, it checks if a sample has been taken by native profiler addon, then if that's the case, it updates the context of the sample with span id and root span id computed from previous span / started spans. It also add the tags from the last web span to the context to allow computation of endpoint later on.
Profiler may need the tags to determine span resource name for endpoint aggregation: profiler keeps a reference on web span that was active when each profiling sample is taken. Then during profile export, span tags are used to determine endpoint. Endpoint cannot be determined right away because sometimes tags necessary to determine endpoint are only set just before span is finished.
For web spans, add request tags just after span creation instead of when span finishes. This is needed for profiler code hotspots implementation to determine which span are web spans and should be used to find current endpoint.

Just FYI, we're aiming long-term to eliminate use of async_hooks, so it would be ideal if we can eliminate these async_hooks lifecycle event channels. Not going to block this now as this will be a longer-term effort, but it's worth thinking about how you can do this without these channels.

dd-trace:storage:enter is not async hook specific per se, its event fires when the value in the DD wrapper for AsyncResourceStorage is synchronously modified. I know AsyncResourceStorage is part of the async hooks library, but if we started using Node's AsyncLocalStorage under the hood for DD storage, we could still be emitting this enter event.
That said, I don't see us being able to avoid observing async context switches with the before event as we need to capture the active span on every context switch in case we need to associate it with a taken sample.

Yep, it will be possible to wrap the run method for our use of AsyncLocalStorage to get the enter event, but the before event will likely go away or change substantially at some point so we should be thinking about how we can achieve that in some other way.
It's worth noting that my current work rewriting AsyncLocalStorage is to implement it on the native side which could mean we expose a native interface to it which could enable you to just track your data in an AsyncLocalStorage instance and access that from the C++ side on your end whenever you need it. It would mean needing to enter the isolate so if you're doing that in a signal it probably needs verification that it can function safely. If you can review nodejs/node#48528 to see if that works for you, that would be a big help.

This is interesting! Looking at implementation of AsyncContextFrame::current and AsyncContextFrame::get it might be safe to call from a signal handler. We'll need to be storing a v8::Global on native side for the key and convert it in a v8::Local for the AsyncContextFrame::get call. So we'd still maybe the enter event, and derive some data from the span into our own ALS. Unfortunately, we'll probably lose the ability to do lazy backfilling of our sampling context like we now do on context switches, although considering we'll only have to do this when a logical async context starts, and not on every switch it might work well.

What does this PR do?
Uses the new functionality of wall profiler in DataDog/pprof-nodejs#105 to associate wall profiler samples with span IDs.
Motivation
Implement the code hotspots (ability to link traces to profiling samples) for wall profiler.
Additional Notes
Includes #3368.
Profiler takes samples through a signal handler and needs to retrieve the current span ID and local root span ID in this signal handler.
The current design is to notify profiler on tracer side of all changes of current span. Change of active span can occur for two different reasons:
before/afterand publishing todd-trace:storage:beforeanddd-trace:storage:afterchannels.AsyncResourceStorage.enterWithorAsyncResourceStorage.run: notification is done throughdd-trace:storage:enterchannel.Upon notification and if a sample has been taken by profiler since last notification, profiler tracer side calls profiler native side to update span id / root span id of previous sample.
Implementation notes:
Open questions:
AsyncResourceStorage.enterWith/AsyncResourceStorage.runto detect active span changes ?
