Yang Jihong 55c40e5052 perf kwork top: Introduce new top utility
Some common tools for collecting statistics on CPU usage, such as top,
obtain statistics from timer interrupt sampling, and then periodically
read statistics from /proc/stat.

This method has some deviations:

1. In the tick interrupt, the time between the last tick and the current
   tick is counted in the current task. However, the task may be running
   only part of the time.
2. For each task, the top tool periodically reads the /proc/{PID}/status
   information. For tasks with a short life cycle, it may be missed.

In conclusion, the top tool cannot accurately collect statistics on the
CPU usage and running time of tasks.

The statistical method based on sched_switch tracepoint can accurately
calculate the CPU usage of all tasks. This method is applicable to
scenarios where performance comparison data is of high precision.

Example usage:

  # perf kwork

   Usage: perf kwork [<options>] {record|report|latency|timehist|top}

      -D, --dump-raw-trace  dump raw trace in ASCII
      -f, --force           don't complain, do it
      -k, --kwork <kwork>   list of kwork to profile (irq, softirq, workqueue, sched, etc)
      -v, --verbose         be more verbose (show symbol address, etc)

  # perf kwork -k sched record -- perf bench sched messaging -g 1 -l 10000
  # Running 'sched/messaging' benchmark:
  # 20 sender and receiver processes per group
  # 1 groups == 40 processes run

       Total time: 14.074 [sec]
  [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
  [ perf record: Captured and wrote 15.886 MB perf.data (129472 samples) ]
