2009-09-20perf util: Make the timechart SVG width dynamicArjan van de Ven
This patch adds a command line option for timechart that allows the user to specify the width of the SVG file. This patch also makes sure that each second of recording has at least 200 units (pixels at 96 DPI) of width. This impacts recordings longer than 5 seconds; recordings shorter than 5 second will scale up to have a width of 1000 units for the whole recording (as before).

2009-09-20perf timechart: Show the duration of scheduler delays in the SVGArjan van de Ven
Given that scheduler latencies are the hot thing nowadays, show the duration of said latencies in the SVG in text form. In addition, if the latency is more than 10 msec, pick a brighter yellow color as a way to point these long delays out.

2009-09-20perf timechart: Show the name of the waker/wakee in timechartArjan van de Ven
Timechart currently shows thin green lines for sending or receiving wakeups. This patch also prints (in a very small font) the name of the process that is being woken/wakes up this process.

2009-09-19perf: Add the timechart toolArjan van de Ven
timechart is a tool to visualize what is going on in the system. The user makes a trace of what is going on with > perf record --timechart /usr/bin/some_command and then can turn the output of this into an svg file > perf timechart which then can be viewed with any SVG view; inkscape works well enough for me. The idea behind timechart is to create a "infinitely zoomable" picture; something that has high level information on a 1:1 zoom level, but which exposes more details every time you zoom into a specific area.
