[PATCH v2 00/18] TSC trace clock to nanosecond conversion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Added new logic for converting TSC event's timestamps to nanoseconds. This
trace clock is used by default in host-guest tracing session in combination
with KVM time sync plugin. The parameters for conversion are retrieved by
the perf kernel interface.
New option is added to "trace-cmd report" command to force displaying raw
time stamps from the trace file, without any corrections to the time stamps.

These changes depend on "Refactoring and improvements of time sync logic"
patch set.

v2 changes:
 - Added new trace clock "-C tsc2nsec", which does not depend on host-guest
   tracing use case.
 - A few minor improvements and fixes. 

Tzvetomir Stoyanov (VMware) (18):
  trace-cmd: Add initial perf interface in trace-cmd library
  trace-cmd: Extend trace-cmd dump subcommand to display the clock
  trace-cmd: Save only the selected clock in the trace.dat file
  trace-cmd: Add new trace-cmd clock tsc2nsec
  trace-cmd: Add a new option in trace file metadata for tsc2nsec
    conversion
  trace-cmd: Save information for tsc to nanoseconds conversion in trace
    file
  trace-cmd: Read information for tsc to nanoseconds conversion from
    trace file
  trace-cmd: Save tsc2nsec clock in trace.dat file
  trace-cmd: Append new options into guest trace file at the end of the
    tracing session
  trace-cmd: Remove unneeded multiply in events timestamp reading
  trace-cmd: Perform all timestamp corrections in a single function
  trace-cmd: Convert tsc timestamps to nanosecods when reading trace
    data from a file
  trace-cmd: Set order and priorities when applying timestamp
    corrections
  trace-cmd: Add a new flag to disable any timestamp corrections
  trace-cmd: Add new parameter "--raw-ts" to "trace-cmd report" command
  trace-cmd: Print times in TimeShift options as unsigned in trace-cmd
    dump
  trace-cmd: Use tsc clock for host-guest tracing, if available
  trace-cmd: Get current clock for host-guest tracing session
