ice: add trace events for tx timestamps
We've previously run into many issues related to the latency of a Tx timestamp completion with the ice hardware. It can be difficult to determine the root cause of a slow Tx timestamp. To aid in this, introduce new trace events which capture timing data about when the driver reaches certain points while processing a transmit timestamp * ice_tx_tstamp_request: Trace when the stack initiates a new timestamp request. * ice_tx_tstamp_fw_req: Trace when the driver begins a read of the timestamp register in the work thread. * ice_tx_tstamp_fw_done: Trace when the driver finishes reading a timestamp register in the work thread. * ice_tx_tstamp_complete: Trace when the driver submits the skb back to the stack with a completed Tx timestamp. These trace events can be enabled using the standard trace event subsystem exposed by the ice driver. If they are disabled, they become no-ops with no run time cost. The following is a simple GNU AWK script which can highlight one potential way to use the trace events to capture latency data from the trace buffer about how long the driver takes to process a timestamp: ----- BEGIN { PREC=256 } # Detect requests /tx_tstamp_request/ { time=strtonum($4) skb=$7 # Store the time of request for this skb requests[skb] = time printf("skb %s: idx %d at %.6f\n", skb, idx, time) } # Detect completions /tx_tstamp_complete/ { time=strtonum($4) skb=$7 idx=$9 if (skb in requests) { latency = (time - requests[skb]) * 1000 printf("skb %s: %.3f to complete\n", skb, latency) if (latency > 4) { printf(">>> HIGH LATENCY <<<\n") } printf("\n") } else { printf("!!! skb %s (idx %d) at %.6f\n", skb, idx, time) } } ----- Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@intel.com> Tested-by: Gurucharan <gurucharanx.g@intel.com> (A Contingent worker at Intel) Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>
