Subject: [RFC PATCH v9 3/4] blk-iocost: add iocost_ioc_tick tracepoint for per-period device summary
Date: Sat,  3 Oct 2026 09:30:32 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261003013033.149288-4-cui.tao@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261003013033.149288-1-cui.tao@linux.dev>

Add iocost_ioc_tick, emitted once per period from ioc_timer_fn()
with the overall controller state: period_us, vrate, busy_level,
active iocg count, usage percentage and whether the controller
still has active iocgs.  It reads the values the period ran in:
the event is emitted before the vrate adjustment and the period
transition, so each tick reports the completed period.  ioc->running
has not transitioned to IOC_IDLE at the emit point, so the running
field reports the active iocg list instead.

It fires every period the controller is running, including steady
states, plus one final tick before the controller goes idle, which
reads active=0 running=0, making the transition to dormancy (e.g. a
device saturated entirely by uncharged IO) directly visible.
