[PATCH] sched: Add trace for task wake up latency and leave running time

From: Dongjiu Geng
Date: Fri Aug 21 2020 - 11:37:37 EST


1) The perf event sched_switch is used to record scheduling tracks,
which consumes a large amount of CPU resources and disk space.
Therefore, a mechanism is required to record only the scheduling
delay greater than a certain threshold. This patch supports this
feature. For example, if the threshold is 10 ms, you can run the
following command to only record the scheduling track with the
scheduling delay greater than 10 ms.

echo 'time > 10000000' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup_latency/filter
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_wakeup_latency/enable

2) Similarly, when tune performance, we usually want to know which
tasks are not running for a long time, Use the following methods
to save CPU overhead and storage space.

echo 'time > 10000000' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_leave_running_time/filter
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_leave_running_time/enable
