tracing: Add hist trigger 'log2' modifier
Allow users to have numeric fields displayed as log2 values in case value range is very wide by appending '.log2' to field names. For example, # echo 'hist:key=bytes_req' > kmalloc/trigger # cat kmalloc/hist { bytes_req: 504 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 11 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 104 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 48 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 2048 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 4096 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 240 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 392 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 13 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 28 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 12 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: 64 } hitcount: 2 { bytes_req: 128 } hitcount: 2 { bytes_req: 32 } hitcount: 2 { bytes_req: 8 } hitcount: 11 { bytes_req: 10 } hitcount: 13 { bytes_req: 24 } hitcount: 25 { bytes_req: 160 } hitcount: 29 { bytes_req: 16 } hitcount: 33 { bytes_req: 80 } hitcount: 36 When using '.log2' modifier, the output looks like: # echo 'hist:key=bytes_req.log2' > kmalloc/trigger # cat kmalloc/hist { bytes_req: ~ 2^12 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: ~ 2^11 } hitcount: 1 { bytes_req: ~ 2^9 } hitcount: 2 { bytes_req: ~ 2^6 } hitcount: 3 { bytes_req: ~ 2^3 } hitcount: 13 { bytes_req: ~ 2^5 } hitcount: 19 { bytes_req: ~ 2^8 } hitcount: 49 { bytes_req: ~ 2^7 } hitcount: 57 { bytes_req: ~ 2^4 } hitcount: 74 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/7ff396b246c6a881f46b979735fddf05a0d6c71a.1457029949.git.tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com Cc: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Cc: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Namhyung Kim <namhyung@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <masami.hiramatsu.pt@hitachi.com> Signed-off-by: Tom Zanussi <tom.zanussi@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
