Subject: [PATCH 6/6] workqueue: Add pwq->stats[] and a monitoring script
Date:   Tue,  9 May 2023 17:07:52 -1000
Message-Id: <20230510030752.542340-7-tj@kernel.org>

Currently, the only way to peer into workqueue operations is through
tracing. While possible, it isn't easy or convenient to monitor
per-workqueue behaviors over time this way. Let's add pwq->stats[] that
track relevant events and a drgn monitoring script -
tools/workqueue/wq_monitor.py.

It's arguable whether this needs to be configurable. However, it currently
only has seven counters and the runtime overhead shouldn't be noticeable
given that they're on pwq's which are per-cpu on per-cpu workqueues and
per-numa-node on unbound ones. Let's keep it simple for the time being.
