[PATCH v4 2/2] tools/testing/fpu: Add script to consume trace log of xsave latency

From: Yi Sun
Date: Mon Aug 29 2022 - 22:28:25 EST


Consume the trace log dumped by trace points x86_fpu_latency_xsave and
x86_fpu_latency_xrstor, calculate latency ranges for each RFBM and
XINUSE combination including min, max, average and 97% tail latency.

Add the average of 97% tail latency to remove the unreasonable
data which is introduced by interrupts or other noise. By adding the
experimental code disabling interrupts before the calculation of
latency, it's obvious to get the 3% tail latency has been filtered.

Make use of sqlite3 to make the data statistics more efficient and
concise. The output looks like following:

EVENTs RFBM XINUSE lat_min lat_max lat_avg lat_avg(97%)
---------------------- ------- ------ ------- ------- ------- ------------
x86_fpu_latency_xrstor 0x206e7 0x0 364 364 364 364
x86_fpu_latency_xrstor 0x206e7 0x202 112 1152 300 276
x86_fpu_latency_xsave 0x206e7 0x202 80 278 141 137
x86_fpu_latency_xsave 0x206e7 0x246 108 234 180 177

The XSAVE/XRSTOR latency trace log can be got by two ways:
1. Generated by Kernel debugfs
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/x86_fpu/enable
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe > trace-log

2. Generated by helper tool like 'trace-cmd'
trace-cmd record -e x86_fpu -F <command>
trace-cmd report > trace-log
