tracing: add "power-tracer": C/P state tracer to help power optimization
Impact: new "power-tracer" ftrace plugin This patch adds a C/P-state ftrace plugin that will generate detailed statistics about the C/P-states that are being used, so that we can look at detailed decisions that the C/P-state code is making, rather than the too high level "average" that we have today. An example way of using this is: mount -t debugfs none /sys/kernel/debug echo cstate > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled sleep 1 echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace | perl scripts/trace/cstate.pl > out.svg Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
