2008-10-12fastboot: Fix bootgraph.pl initcall name regexpArnaud Patard
The regexp used to match the start and the end of an initcall are matching only on [a-zA-Z\_]. This rules out initcalls with a number in them. This patch is fixing that. Signed-off-by: Arnaud Patard <apatard@mandriva.com>
2008-10-12fastboot: fix issues and improve output of bootgraph.plArjan van de Ven
David Sanders reported some issues with bootgraph.pl's display of his sytems bootup; this commit fixes these by scaling the graph not from 0 - end time but from the first initcall to the end time; the minimum display size etc also now need to scale with this, as does the axis display.

2008-10-12Add a script to visualize the kernel boot process / timeArjan van de Ven
When optimizing the kernel boot time, it's very valuable to visualize what is going on at which time. In addition, with some of the initializing going asynchronous soon, it's valuable to track/print which worker thread is executing the initialization. This patch adds a script to turn a dmesg into a SVG graph (that can be shown with tools such as InkScape, Gimp or Firefox) and a small change to the initcall code to print the PID of the thread calling the initcall (so that the script can work out the parallelism).
