Subject: [PATCH] trace: Add trace points for tasklet entry/exit
Date: Tue,  3 Jan 2023 18:54:08 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230103185408.2874345-1-jstultz@google.com> (raw)

From: Lingutla Chandrasekhar <clingutla@codeaurora.org>

Tasklets are supposed to finish their work quickly and
should not block the current running process, but it is not
guaranteed that. Currently softirq_entry/exit can be used to
know total tasklets execution time, but not helpful to track
individual tasklet's execution time. With that we can't find
any culprit tasklet function, which is taking more time.

Add tasklet_entry/exit trace point support to track
individual tasklet execution.

This patch has been carried in the Android tree for awhile
so I wanted to submit it for review upstream. Feedback would
be appreciated!
