Subject: [PATCH v2] perf sched timehist: Fixed timestamp error when unable to confirm event sched_in time
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2024 10:47:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240819024720.2405244-1-yangjihong@bytedance.com> (raw)

If sched_in event for current task is not recorded, sched_in timestamp
will be set to end_time of time window interest, causing an error in
timestamp show. In this case, we choose to ignore this event.

Test scenario:
  perf[1229608] does not record the first sched_in event, run time and sch delay are both 0

  # perf sched timehist
  Samples of sched_switch event do not have callchains.

Before:
  arbitrarily specify a time window of interest, timestamp will be set to an incorrect value

  # perf sched timehist --time 100,200

  # perf sched timehist --time 100,200
  Samples of sched_switch event do not have callchains.
