Subject: [PATCH] tracing: Add "grouping" to histogram logic
From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@...dmis.org>
There's been several times I wished the histogram logic had a "grouping"
feature for the buckets. Currently, each bucket has a size of one. That
is, if you trace the amount of requested allocations, each allocation is
its own bucket, even if you are interested in what allocates 100 bytes or
less, 100 to 200, 200 to 300, etc.
Also, without grouping, it fills up the allocated histogram buckets
quickly. If you are tracking latency, and don't care if something is 200
microseconds off, or 201 microseconds off, but want to track them by say
10 microseconds each. This can not currently be done.
Introduce a "grouping" command to each field where it will record in a
rounded number. For example:
># echo 'hist:keys=bytes_req-100:sort=bytes_req' > events/kmem/kmalloc/trigger
># cat events/kmem/kmalloc/hist
# event histogram
#
# trigger info:
hist:keys=bytes_req-100:vals=hitcount:sort=bytes_req-100:size=2048
[active]

This finally makes the histograms actual histograms!
