Diego Pomares 0eb3456a91 Added filters
The only thing missing is the capability of adding filters, example:

# ... synchronous writes histogram, 5 seconds
perf-stat-hist -f 'rwbs == "WS"' block:block_rq_complete nr_sector 5

# perf-stat-hist - perf_events stat histogram hack.
# Written using Linux perf_events (aka "perf").
#
# This is a proof-of-concept showing in-kernel histogram summaries of a
# tracepoint variable.
#
# USAGE: perf-stat-hist [-h] [-b buckets|-P power] [-m max] tracepoint
# variable [seconds]
#
# Run "perf-stat-hist -h" for full usage.
#
# This uses multiple counting tracepoints with different filters, one for each
# histogram bucket. While this is summarized in-kernel, the use of multiple
# tracepoints does add addiitonal overhead, which is more evident if you change
# the power-of size from 4 to 2 (which creates more buckets). Hopefully, in the
# future this this functionality will be provided in an efficient way from
# perf_events itself, at which point this tool can be rewritten.

USAGE: perf-stat-hist [-h] [-b buckets|-P power] [-m max] [-f filter]
tracepoint variable [seconds]
-b buckets # specify histogram bucket points
-P power # power-of (default is 4)
-m max # max value for power-of
-f filter # specify a filter
-h # this usage message
eg,
perf-stat-hist syscalls:sys_enter_read count 5
# read() request histogram, 5 seconds
perf-stat-hist syscalls:sys_exit_read ret 5
# read() return histogram, 5 seconds
perf-stat-hist -P 10 syscalls:sys_exit_read ret 5
# ... use power-of-10
perf-stat-hist -P 2 -m 1024 syscalls:sys_exit_read ret 5
# ... use power-of-2, max 1024
perf-stat-hist -b "10 50 100 500" syscalls:sys_exit_read ret 5
# ... histogram based on these bucket ranges
perf-stat-hist -b 10 syscalls:sys_exit_read ret 5
# ... bifurcate by the value 10 (lowest overhead)
perf-stat-hist -f 'rwbs == "WS"' block:block_rq_complete nr_sector 5
# ... synchronous writes histogram, 5 seconds
