    ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings · 81d68a96
    Steven Rostedt authored
    This patch adds latency tracing for critical timings
    (how long interrupts are disabled for).
    
     "irqsoff" is added to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers
    
    Note:
      tracing_max_latency
        also holds the max latency for irqsoff (in usecs).
       (default to large number so one must start latency tracing)
    
      tracing_thresh
        threshold (in usecs) to always print out if irqs off
        is detected to be longer than stated here.
        If irq_thresh is non-zero, then max_irq_latency
        is ignored.
    
    Here's an example of a trace with ftrace_enabled = 0
