Ian Rogers 28917cb17f perf drm_pmu: Add a tool like PMU to expose DRM information
DRM clients expose information through usage stats as documented in
Documentation/gpu/drm-usage-stats.rst (available online at
https://docs.kernel.org/gpu/drm-usage-stats.html). Add a tool like
PMU, similar to the hwmon PMU, that exposes DRM information. For
example on a tigerlake laptop:
```
$ perf list drm

List of pre-defined events (to be used in -e or -M):

drm:
  drm-active-stolen-system0
       [Total memory active in one or more engines. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-active-system0
       [Total memory active in one or more engines. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-engine-capacity-video
       [Engine capacity. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-engine-copy
       [Utilization in ns. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-engine-render
       [Utilization in ns. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-engine-video
       [Utilization in ns. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-engine-video-enhance
       [Utilization in ns. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-purgeable-stolen-system0
       [Size of resident and purgeable memory bufers. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-purgeable-system0
       [Size of resident and purgeable memory bufers. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-resident-stolen-system0
       [Size of resident memory bufers. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-resident-system0
       [Size of resident memory bufers. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-shared-stolen-system0
       [Size of shared memory bufers. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-shared-system0
       [Size of shared memory bufers. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-total-stolen-system0
       [Size of shared and private memory. Unit: drm_i915]
  drm-total-system0
       [Size of shared and private memory. Unit: drm_i915]
```

System wide data can be gathered:
```

As with the hwmon PMU, high numbered PMU types are used to encode
multiple possible "DRM" PMUs. The appropriate fdinfo is found by
scanning /proc and filtering which fdinfos to read with stat. To avoid
some unneeding scanning, events not starting with "drm-" are
ignored. The patch builds on commit 57e13264dc ("perf pmus:
Restructure pmu_read_sysfs to scan fewer PMUs") and later so that only
if full wild carding is being done, the PMU starts with "drm_" or the
event starts with "drm-" will /proc be scanned. That is there should
be little to no cost in this PMU unless DRM events are requested.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
