If I caught it right, file format is:
render ring: 12345
bsd ring: 12345
...
Yes almost, just that the engine names have been changed to likes of
rcs0, vcs0, vcs1, vecs0 and bcs0 in the meantime.
where numbers are busy clocks (ns) from the system boot time. Is that
Nanoseconds, but not since boot time but since the last time tracking
got enabled.
Because the most important thing in this version, from the point of view
of overhead in interrupt tasklet, is that the tracking is not done
unless somebody is listening (has the file open).
As I wrote in the cover letter and the 2nd patch, when nobody has the
file open the only thing which exists in the interrupt tasklets are
three no-nop instructions. They only get patched to jumps (to sections
actually collecting the stats) for as long as someone has the file open.
right? What if we will want to expose some other statistics information
later, not only busy clocks? For example, engines i915 queues depths is
a next interest. Maybe later we will find something else interesting.
So, do we want to consider this file to contain all kind of statistics
in the future, and hence it should be of somewhat different format, or
it will have only busy clocks, and maybe we need other file name then?
It can be either of the two, or some third option. It sounds like it is
too early to discuss those level of detail. At this point it was an RFC
only to gather some opinions on the overall idea.
