This patch adds the annotation of 'CPU[###]' where ### is a three digit number. The output will look similar to this: CPU[001] dput() { CPU[000] } 726 CPU[001] } 487 CPU[000] do_softirq() { CPU[001] } 2221 CPU[000] __do_softirq() { CPU[000] __local_bh_disable() { CPU[001] unroll_tree_refs() { CPU[000] } 569 CPU[001] } 501 CPU[000] rcu_process_callbacks() { CPU[001] kfree() { What makes this nice is that now you can grep the file and produce readable format for a particular CPU. # cat /debug/tracing/trace > /tmp/trace # grep '^CPU\[000\]' /tmp/trace > /tmp/trace0 # grep '^CPU\[001\]' /tmp/trace > /tmp/trace1 Will give you: # head /tmp/trace0 CPU[000] ------------8<---------- thread sshd-3899 ------------8<---------- CPU[000] inotify_dentry_parent_queue_event() { CPU[000] } 2531 CPU[000] inotify_inode_queue_event() { CPU[000] } 505 CPU[000] } 69626 CPU[000] } 73089 CPU[000] audit_syscall_exit() { CPU[000] path_put() { CPU[000] dput() { # head /tmp/trace1 CPU[001] ------------8<---------- thread pcscd-3446 ------------8<---------- CPU[001] } 4186 CPU[001] dput() { CPU[001] } 543 CPU[001] vfs_permission() { CPU[001] inode_permission() { CPU[001] shmem_permission() { CPU[001] generic_permission() { CPU[001] } 501 CPU[001] } 2205 Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
