Thomas Renninger 25e41933b5 perf: Clean up power events by introducing new, more generic ones
Add these new power trace events:

 power:cpu_idle
 power:cpu_frequency
 power:machine_suspend

The old C-state/idle accounting events:
  power:power_start
  power:power_end

Have now a replacement (but we are still keeping the old
tracepoints for compatibility):

  power:cpu_idle

and
  power:power_frequency

is replaced with:
  power:cpu_frequency

power:machine_suspend is newly introduced.

Jean Pihet has a patch integrated into the generic layer
(kernel/power/suspend.c) which will make use of it.

the type= field got removed from both, it was never
used and the type is differed by the event type itself.

perf timechart userspace tool gets adjusted in a separate patch.

Jean Pihet 74704ac6ea tracing, perf: Add more power related events
This patch adds new generic events for dynamic power management
tracing:

 - clock events class: used for clock enable/disable and for
   clock rate change,
 - power_domain events class: used for power domains transitions.

The OMAP architecture will be using the new events for PM debugging,
however the new events are made generic enough to be used by all
platforms.

Thomas Renninger 4c21adf26f x86 cpufreq, perf: Make trace_power_frequency cpufreq driver independent
and fix the broken case if a core's frequency depends on others.

trace_power_frequency was only implemented in a rather ungeneric
way in acpi-cpufreq driver's target() function only.

-> Move the call to trace_power_frequency to
   cpufreq.c:cpufreq_notify_transition() where CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE
   notifier is triggered.
   This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq
   drivers.

trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly
when the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores'
frequency depend on each other.

-> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu
   which gets switched automatically fixes this.

Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my
initial quick shot version which are integrated in this patch:
- Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names)
- Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id
- Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id

Li Zefan 7703466b4c tracing: Convert some power events to DEFINE_EVENT
Use DECLARE_EVENT_CLASS to remove duplicate code:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   4312     524      12    4848    12f0 kernel/trace/power-traces.o.old
   3455     524       8    3987     f93 kernel/trace/power-traces.o

Two events are converted:

  power: power_start, power_frequency

No change in functionality.

Ingo Molnar 434a83c3fb events: Harmonize event field names and print output names
Now that we can filter based on fields via perf record, people
will start using filter expressions and will expect them to
be obvious.

The primary way to see which fields are available is by looking
at the trace output, such as:

  gcc-18676 [000]   343.011728: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.012727: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.032692: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.033690: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.034687: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.035686: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer
  cc1-18677 [000]   343.036684: irq_handler_entry: irq=0 handler=timer

While 'irq==0' filters work, the 'handler==<x>' filter expression
does not work:

  $ perf record -R -f -a -e irq:irq_handler_entry --filter handler=timer sleep 1
   Error: failed to set filter with 22 (Invalid argument)

The problem is that while an 'irq' field exists and is recognized
as a filter field - 'handler' does not exist - its name is 'name'
in the output.

To solve this, we need to synchronize the printout and the field
names, wherever possible.

In cases where the printout prints a non-field, we enclose
that information in square brackets, such as:

  perf-1380  [013]   724.903505: softirq_exit: vec=9 [action=RCU]
  perf-1380  [013]   724.904482: softirq_exit: vec=1 [action=TIMER]

This way users can use filter expressions more intuitively: all
fields that show up as 'primary' (non-bracketed) information is
filterable.

This patch harmonizes the field names for all irq, bkl, power,
sched and timer events.

We might in fact think about dropping the print format bit of
generic tracepoints altogether, and just print the fields that
are being recorded.

Arjan van de Ven 6161352142 tracing, perf: Convert the power tracer into an event tracer
This patch converts the existing power tracer into an event tracer,
so that power events (C states and frequency changes) can be
tracked via "perf".

This also removes the perl script that was used to demo the tracer;
its functionality is being replaced entirely with timechart.
