11:08 <BobB3> austriancoder: regarding global perfmon counters, I had added some ioctls myself while waiting for you to think about the idea. You can see it here:

11:08 <BobB3> https://gitlab.collabora.com/bbeckett/linux/-/commits/etnaviv_perfmon_ioctls

11:08 <BobB3> I'm working on a little text ui client for it atm.

11:08 <BobB3> It exposes them directly via ioctl structures and refcounts the enabling so it can be used at the same time as per-draw

11:11 <austriancoder> BobB3: I did almost the same changes: https://github.com/austriancoder/linux/tree/perfetto

11:12 <austriancoder> BobB3: I went with SET_PARAM and GET_PARAM to enable global perfcounter mode

11:13 <austriancoder> BobB3: k.. maybe you could take some inspiration from https://github.com/etnaviv/etna_viv/blob/master/attic/utils/viv_gpu_top.c

11:21 <austriancoder> BobB3: and I also have wip perfetto changes

11:26 <BobB3> austriancoder: nice

19:19 <Marex> austriancoder: does the perfetto work without the web interface somehow too ?

19:20 <Marex> austriancoder: what's that about anyway, a tool to record the entire system in context ?
