The power tracer collects detailed information about C-state and P-state
transitions, instead of just looking at the high-level "average"
information.
There is a helper script found in scrips/tracing/power.pl in the kernel
sources which can be used to parse this information and create a
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) picture from the trace data.
To use this tracer:
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled
echo power > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled
sleep 1
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/tracing_enabled
cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace | \
perl scripts/tracing/power.pl > out.sv
