Frederic Weisbecker df92b40848 perf, sched migration: Librarize the GUI class
Export the GUI facility in the common library path. It is
going to be useful for other scheduler views.

Frederic Weisbecker 699b6d922c perf, sched migration: Make the GUI class client agnostic
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.

Frederic Weisbecker 70d815a3de perf, sched migration: Make it vertically scrollable
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.

Nikhil Rao 0cddf56aa8 perf, sched migration: Parameterize cpu height and spacing
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.

Frederic Weisbecker 749e507411 perf, sched migration: Handle ignored migrate out events
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.

Frederic Weisbecker 880d22f247 perf: New migration tool overview
This brings a GUI tool that displays an overview of the load
of tasks proportion in each CPUs.

The CPUs forward progress is cut in timeslices. A new timeslice
is created for every runqueue event: a task gets pushed out or
pulled in the runqueue.

For each timeslice, every CPUs rectangle is colored with a red
power that describes the local load against the total load.
This more red is the rectangle, the higher is the given CPU load.
This load is the number of tasks running on the CPU, without
any distinction against the scheduler policy of the tasks, for
now.

Also for each timeslice, the event origin is depicted on the
CPUs that triggered it using a thin colored line on top of the
rectangle timeslice.

These events are:

* sleep: a task went to sleep and has then been pulled out the
  runqueue. The origin color in the thin line is dark blue.

* wake up: a task woke up and has then been pushed in the
  runqueue. The origin color is yellow.

* wake up new: a new task woke up and has then been pushed in the
  runqueue. The origin color is green.

* migrate in: a task migrated in the runqueue due to a load
  balancing operation. The origin color is violet.

* migrate out: reverse of the previous one. Migrate in events
  usually have paired migrate out events in another runqueue.
  The origin color is light blue.

Clicking on a timeslice provides the runqueue event details
and the runqueue state.

The CPU rectangles can be navigated using the usual arrow
controls. Horizontal zooming in/out is possible with the
"+" and "-" buttons.

A couple of fixes for the rwtop script:

- printing the totals and clearing the hashes in the signal handler
  eventually leads to various random and serious problems when running
  the rwtop script continuously.  Moving the print_totals() calls to
  the event handlers solves that problem, and the event handlers are
  invoked frequently enough that it doesn't affect the timeliness of
  the output.

Tom Zanussi 47902f3611 perf trace/scripting: Add rwtop and sctop scripts
A couple of scripts, one in Python and the other in Perl, that
demonstrate 'live mode' tracing.  For each, the output of the
perf event stream is fed continuously to the script, which
continuously aggregates the data and reports the current results
every 3 seconds, or at the optionally specified interval.  After
the current results are displayed, the aggregations are cleared
and the cycle begins anew.

To run the scripts, simply pipe the output of the 'perf trace
record' step as input to the corresponding 'perf trace report'
step, using '-' as the filename to -o and -i:

 $ perf trace record sctop -o - | perf trace report sctop -i -

Also adds clear_term() utility functions to the Util.pm and
Util.py utility modules, for use by any script to clear the
screen.

Tom Zanussi 4b9c0c596e perf trace/scripting: List available scripts
Lists the available perf trace scripts, one per line e.g.:

root@tropicana:~# perf trace -l
List of available trace scripts:
  workqueue-stats                      workqueue stats (ins/exe/create/destroy)
  wakeup-latency                       system-wide min/max/avg wakeup latency
  rw-by-file <comm>                    r/w activity for a program, by file

  rw-by-pid                            system-wide r/w activity

To be consistent with the other listing options in perf, the
current latency trace option was changed to '-L', and '-l' is
now used to access the script listing as:

To create the list, it searches each scripts/*/bin directory for
files ending with "-report" and reads information found in
certain comment lines contained in those shell scripts:

  - if the comment line starts with "description:", the rest of the
    line is used as a 'half-line' description.  To keep each line in
    the list to a single line, the description should be limited to 40
    characters (the rest of the line contains the script name and
    args)

  - if the comment line starts with "args:", the rest of the line
    names the args the script supports.  Required args should be
    surrounded by <> brackets, optional args by [] brackets.

The current scripts in scripts/perl/bin have also been updated
with description: and args: comments.

argc/argv to the start_script() scripting_op, and changes the

value currently hard-coded.  It also takes the opportunity to do

Tom Zanussi d1b93772be perf trace: Add interface to access perf data from Perl handlers
The Perl scripting support for perf trace allows most of a trace
event's data to be accessed directly as handler arguments, but
not all of it e.g. the less common fields aren't passed in.  To
give scripts access to the other fields and/or any other data or
metadata in the main perf executable that might be useful, a way
to access the C data in perf from Perl is needed; this patch
uses the Perl XS facility to do it for the common_xxx event
fields not passed to handler functions.

Context.pm exports three functions to Perl scripts that access
fields for the current event by calling back into perf:
common_pc(), common_flags() and common_lock_depth().  Support
for common_flags() field values was added to Core.pm and a
script used to sanity check these and other basic scripting
features, check-perf-trace.pl, was also added.

Tom Zanussi bcefe12eff perf trace: Add perf trace scripting support modules for Perl
Add Perf-Trace-Util Perl module and some scripts that use it.
Core.pm contains Perl code to define and access flag and
symbolic fields. Util.pm contains general-purpose utility
functions.

Also adds some makefile bits to install them in
libexec/perf-core/scripts/perl (or wherever perfexec_instdir
points).
