Tracer Tool
-------------
``amd_pstate_tracer.py`` can record and parse ``amd-pstate`` trace log, then
generate performance plots. This utility can be used to debug and tune the
performance of ``amd-pstate`` driver. The tracer tool needs to import intel
pstate tracer.
Tracer tool located in ``linux/tools/power/x86/amd_pstate_tracer``. It can be
used in two ways. If trace file is available, then directly parse the file
with command ::
./amd_pstate_trace.py [-c cpus] -t <trace_file> -n <test_name>
Or generate trace file with root privilege, then parse and plot with command ::
sudo ./amd_pstate_trace.py [-c cpus] -n <test_name> -i <interval> [-m kbytes]
The test result can be found in ``results/test_name``. Following is the example
about part of the output. ::
