This patch originates from the need to measure latency
introduced by driver for Amplicon's PCIE215 during interrupt
handling.
Added is a single ftrace event:
/*
* Tracepoint for calling from various places inside Comedi.
* Takes simple id and prints it to the trace log if trace
* events from Comedi are enabled.
*
* Currently following tracepoints are in use:
*
* Id : Description
* 0 Enter the interrupt of amplc_dio200_common
* 1 Called from same ISR of amplc_dio200_common if IRQ is handled
*
* If you would like to add new tracepoint just add a call to
* trace_comedi_event(id)
* with id incremented.
*/
TRACE_EVENT(comedi_event,
TP_PROTO(__u8 id),
TP_ARGS(id),
TP_STRUCT__entry(
__field(__u8, id)
),
TP_fast_assign(
__entry->id = id;
),
TP_printk("[%u]", __entry->id)
);
Event can be raised from multiple places in code
and when read from trace log and disambiguated by id
allows for latency (timing) measurement between
corresponding points in code.
Event with id 0 has been put inside amplc_dio200_common
interrupt handler to mark ISR entry. Event with id 1
has been put right after previous one to mark cases when
IRQ is handled.
Example
By enabling triggering of Comedi ftrace events together
with sched_wakeup event
cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
echo 1 > events/comedi/enable
echo 1 > events/sched/sched_wakeup/enable
echo nop > trace
start the program using Comedi to execute blocking read
to sense the signal asserted on pin PPI_Y_C0 of PCIE215
echo 1 > tracing_on
echo 0 > tracing_on
vim trace
and by analysing the content of produced trace file
