Subsystem Trace Points: power
|
||
|
|
||
|
The power tracing system captures events related to power transitions
|
||
|
within the kernel. Broadly speaking there are three major subheadings:
|
||
|
|
||
|
o Power state switch which reports events related to suspend (S-states),
|
||
|
cpuidle (C-states) and cpufreq (P-states)
|
||
|
o System clock related changes
|
||
|
o Power domains related changes and transitions
|
||
|
|
||
|
This document describes what each of the tracepoints is and why they
|
||
|
might be useful.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Cf. include/trace/events/power.h for the events definitions.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Power state switch events
|
||
|
============================
|
||
|
|
||
|
1.1 New trace API
|
||
|
-----------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
A 'cpu' event class gathers the CPU-related events: cpuidle and
|
||
|
cpufreq.
|
||
|
|
||
|
cpu_idle "state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
cpu_frequency "state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
|
||
|
A suspend event is used to indicate the system going in and out of the
|
||
|
suspend mode:
|
||
|
|
||
|
machine_suspend "state=%lu"
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
Note: the value of '-1' or '4294967295' for state means an exit from the current state,
|
||
|
i.e. trace_cpu_idle(4, smp_processor_id()) means that the system
|
||
|
enters the idle state 4, while trace_cpu_idle(PWR_EVENT_EXIT, smp_processor_id())
|
||
|
means that the system exits the previous idle state.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The event which has 'state=4294967295' in the trace is very important to the user
|
||
|
space tools which are using it to detect the end of the current state, and so to
|
||
|
correctly draw the states diagrams and to calculate accurate statistics etc.
|
||
|
|
||
|
1.2 DEPRECATED trace API
|
||
|
------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
A new Kconfig option CONFIG_EVENT_POWER_TRACING_DEPRECATED with the default value of
|
||
|
'y' has been created. This allows the legacy trace power API to be used conjointly
|
||
|
with the new trace API.
|
||
|
The Kconfig option, the old trace API (in include/trace/events/power.h) and the
|
||
|
old trace points will disappear in a future release (namely 2.6.41).
|
||
|
|
||
|
power_start "type=%lu state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
power_frequency "type=%lu state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
power_end "cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
|
||
|
The 'type' parameter takes one of those macros:
|
||
|
. POWER_NONE = 0,
|
||
|
. POWER_CSTATE = 1, /* C-State */
|
||
|
. POWER_PSTATE = 2, /* Fequency change or DVFS */
|
||
|
|
||
|
The 'state' parameter is set depending on the type:
|
||
|
. Target C-state for type=POWER_CSTATE,
|
||
|
. Target frequency for type=POWER_PSTATE,
|
||
|
|
||
|
power_end is used to indicate the exit of a state, corresponding to the latest
|
||
|
power_start event.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Clocks events
|
||
|
================
|
||
|
The clock events are used for clock enable/disable and for
|
||
|
clock rate change.
|
||
|
|
||
|
clock_enable "%s state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
clock_disable "%s state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
clock_set_rate "%s state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
|
||
|
The first parameter gives the clock name (e.g. "gpio1_iclk").
|
||
|
The second parameter is '1' for enable, '0' for disable, the target
|
||
|
clock rate for set_rate.
|
||
|
|
||
|
3. Power domains events
|
||
|
=======================
|
||
|
The power domain events are used for power domains transitions
|
||
|
|
||
|
power_domain_target "%s state=%lu cpu_id=%lu"
|
||
|
|
||
|
The first parameter gives the power domain name (e.g. "mpu_pwrdm").
|
||
|
The second parameter is the power domain target state.
|
||
|
