These patches change the event tracer to provide id files:
[root@opteron ~]# for i in /debug/tracing/events/irq/*/id; do echo `cat $i` - $i; done
28 - /debug/tracing/events/irq/irq_handler_entry/id
29 - /debug/tracing/events/irq/irq_handler_exit/id
27 - /debug/tracing/events/irq/softirq_entry/id
26 - /debug/tracing/events/irq/softirq_exit/id
These can then be used in profiling as:
[root@opteron linux-2.6]# ~/perfstat -e 2:28 make O=native-build/ -j4 lib
...
Performance counter stats for 'make':
18280.657602 task clock ticks (msecs)
465 tp: 28 (events)
Wall-clock time elapsed: 11265.199196 msecs
Showing that we had 465 irq_handler_entry events during that workload.
