tracing/osnoise: Add OSNOISE_WORKLOAD option
The osnoise tracer is not only a tracer, and a set of tracepoints, but also a workload dispatcher. In preparation for having other workloads, e.g., in user-space, add an option to avoid dispatching the workload. By not dispatching the workload, the osnoise: tracepoints become generic events to measure the execution time of *any* task on Linux. For example: # cd /sys/kernel/tracing/ # cat osnoise/options DEFAULTS OSNOISE_WORKLOAD # echo NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD > osnoise/options # cat osnoise/options NO_DEFAULTS NO_OSNOISE_WORKLOAD # echo osnoise > set_event # echo osnoise > current_tracer # tail -8 trace make-94722 [002] d..3. 1371.794507: thread_noise: make:94722 start 1371.794302286 duration 200897 ns sh-121042 [020] d..3. 1371.794534: thread_noise: sh:121042 start 1371.781610976 duration 8943683 ns make-121097 [005] d..3. 1371.794542: thread_noise: make:121097 start 1371.794481522 duration 60444 ns <...>-40 [005] d..3. 1371.794550: thread_noise: migration/5:40 start 1371.794542256 duration 7154 ns <idle>-0 [018] dNh2. 1371.794554: irq_noise: reschedule:253 start 1371.794553547 duration 40 ns <idle>-0 [018] dNh2. 1371.794561: irq_noise: local_timer:236 start 1371.794556222 duration 4890 ns <idle>-0 [018] .Ns2. 1371.794563: softirq_noise: SCHED:7 start 1371.794561803 duration 992 ns <idle>-0 [018] d..3. 1371.794566: thread_noise: swapper/18:0 start 1371.781368110 duration 13191798 ns In preparation for the rtla exec_time tracer/tool and rtla osnoise --user option.
