Subject: [RFC PATCH] tracing: add sched_prio_update
This tracepoint allows to keep track of all priority changes of a task.
It outputs the scheduling policy, the nice value, the rt_priority and
the deadline-related attributes (dl_runtime, dl_deadline and dl_period).
It is emitted in the code path of the sched_setscheduler, sched_setattr,
sched_setparam, nice and the fork system calls. For fork, it is emitted
after the sched_process_fork tracepoint for timeline consistency and
because the PID is not yet set when sched_fork() is called.
This allows the analysis of real-time scheduling delays based on the
configured scheduling priorities and policies, which cannot be performed
with the current instrumentation in sched_switch. Also, instead of
exposing the internal kernel prio field, this tracepoint only outputs
the user-visible priority attributes.
The effective priority of running threads can also be temporarily
changed in the PI code, but a dedicated tracepoint is already in place
to cover this case.
Here are a few output examples:
After fork of a normal task:
sched_prio_update: comm=bash pid=2104, policy=SCHED_NORMAL, nice=0,
rt_priority=0, dl_runtime=0, dl_deadline=0, dl_period=0
renice -n 10 of a normal task:
sched_prio_update: comm=sleep pid=2130, policy=SCHED_NORMAL, nice=10,
rt_priority=0, dl_runtime=0, dl_deadline=0, dl_period=0
SCHED_FIFO 60:
sched_prio_update: comm=chrt pid=2105, policy=SCHED_FIFO, nice=0,
rt_priority=60, dl_runtime=0, dl_deadline=0, dl_period=0
SCHED_RR 60:
sched_prio_update: comm=chrt pid=2109, policy=SCHED_RR, nice=0,
rt_priority=60, dl_runtime=0, dl_deadline=0, dl_period=0
SCHED_DEADLINE:
sched_prio_update: comm=b pid=2110, policy=SCHED_DEADLING, nice=0,
rt_priority=0, dl_runtime=10000000, dl_deadline=30000000,
dl_period=30000000
