Hi,

Here is a patch proposal for adding new trace events for power management.
Comments are welcome on this email address Jean Pihet

Subject: [PATCH] tracing, perf: add more power related events

This patch adds new generic events for dynamic power management
tracing:
- clock events class: used for clock enable/disable and for
clock rate change,
- power_domain events class: used for power domains transitions.

The OMAP architecture is using the new events for PM debugging, however
the new events are made generic enough to be used by all platforms.

Even though I'm blissfully ignorant on power stuffs, the proposed set of
trace thingies doesn't appear to even start covering x86..

CC'ed people who know more on the subject.

Ok, let's discuss it! The intention is to provide new generic events.

Any news on the topic? Any feedback on the code or on the new events
definition is welcome.

Thanks!
