Currently only trace point events are supported in perf/python script,
the first 3 patches of this serie add the support for all types of
events. This script is just a simple sample to show how to gather the
basic information of the events and analyze them.
This script will create one object for each event sample and insert them
into a table in a database, then leverage the simple SQL commands to
sort/group them. User can modify or write their brand new functions
according to their specific requirment.
Here is the sample of how to use the script:
$ perf record -a tree
$ perf script -s process_event.py
There is 100 records in gen_events table

A while back I created the dropmonitor protocol, which allowed users to get
reports of dropped frames communicated to them via a netlink socket.
While useful, several people have now asked that I integrate the ability
to do drop monitoring with perf, so they don't have to run additional
tools.
This patch adds a drop monitor script to the perf suite, and provides
the same output that the netlink socket does.

Free the perf trace name space and rename the trace to 'script' which is a
better match for the scripting engine.

Including -a unconditionally when recording doesn't allow for the
option of running scripts without it. Future patches will add add it

Set $PERF_EXEC_PATH before starting the record and report scripts, and

Add a perf script which shows packets processing and processed
time. It helps us to investigate networking or network devices.
If you want to use it, install perf and record perf.data like
following.
If you set script, perf gathers records until it ends.
If not, you must Ctrl-C to stop recording.
And if you want a report from record,
If you use some options, you can limit the output.
Option is below.
tx: show only tx packets processing
rx: show only rx packets processing
dev=: show processing on this device
debug: work with debug mode. It shows buffer status.
For example, if you want to show received packets processing
associated with eth4,
106133.171439sec cpu=0
irq_entry(+0.000msec irq=24:eth4)
|
softirq_entry(+0.006msec)
|
|---netif_receive_skb(+0.010msec skb=f2d15900 len=100)
| |
| skb_copy_datagram_iovec(+0.039msec 10291::10291)
|
napi_poll_exit(+0.022msec eth4)
This perf script helps us to analyze the processing time of a
transmit/receive sequence.

Make the perf migration GUI generic so that it can be reused for
other kinds of trace painting. No more notion of CPUs or runqueue
from the GUI class, it's now used as a library by the trace parser.

With scheduler traces covering more than two cpus, rectangles
of the CPUs 3 and more are not visibles.
This makes the vertical navigation scrollable so that all of the
CPUs rectangles are available.
We also want to be able to zoom vertically, so that we can fit at
best the screen with CPU rectangles, but that's for later.

Without vertical zoom, it is not possible to see all CPUs in a trace
taken on a larger machine. This patch parameterizes the height and
spacing of CPUs so that you can fit more cpus into the screen.
Ideally we should dynamically size/space the CPU rectangles with some
minimum threshold. Until then, this patch is a stop-gap.

EVT_KEY_DOWN and EVT_LEFT_DOWN events are not bound to the RootFrame
event handler. As a result, zoom/scroll via keyboard events do not
work. This patch adds the missing bindings.

Migrate out events may happen on tasks that are not in the
runqueue, for example this is the case for tasks that are
sleeping. In this case, we don't want to log the migrate out
event in the source runqueue because the task is not eventually
in the runqueue and we have already logged its sleep event.
This fixes timeslices that spuriously propagate a sleep event
from the previous timeslice.
