+NMI Trace Events
+
+These events normally show up here:
+
+	/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/nmi
+
+--
+
+nmi_handler:
+
+You might want to use this tracepoint if you suspect that your
+NMI handlers are hogging large amounts of CPU time.  The kernel
+will warn if it sees long-running handlers:
+
+	INFO: NMI handler took too long to run: 9.207 msecs
+
+and this tracepoint will allow you to drill down and get some
+more details.
+
+Let's say you suspect that perf_event_nmi_handler() is causing
+you some problems and you only want to trace that handler
+specifically.  You need to find its address:
+
+	$ grep perf_event_nmi_handler /proc/kallsyms
+	ffffffff81625600 t perf_event_nmi_handler
+
+Let's also say you are only interested in when that function is
+really hogging a lot of CPU time, like a millisecond at a time.
+Note that the kernel's output is in milliseconds, but the input
+to the filter is in nanoseconds!  You can filter on 'delta_ns':
+
+cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/nmi/nmi_handler
+echo 'handler==0xffffffff81625600 && delta_ns>1000000' > filter
+echo 1 > enable
+
+Your output would then look like:
+
+$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe
+<idle>-0     [000] d.h3   505.397558: nmi_handler: perf_event_nmi_handler() delta_ns: 3236765 handled: 1

+4. PM QoS events
+================
+The PM QoS events are used for QoS add/update/remove request and for
+target/flags update.
+
+pm_qos_add_request                 "pm_qos_class=%s value=%d"
+pm_qos_update_request              "pm_qos_class=%s value=%d"

+pm_qos_update_request_timeout      "pm_qos_class=%s value=%d, timeout_us=%ld"
+
+The first parameter gives the QoS class name (e.g. "CPU_DMA_LATENCY").
+The second parameter is value to be added/updated/removed.
+The third parameter is timeout value in usec.
+
+pm_qos_update_target               "action=%s prev_value=%d curr_value=%d"
+pm_qos_update_flags                "action=%s prev_value=0x%x curr_value=0x%x"
+
+The first parameter gives the QoS action name (e.g. "ADD_REQ").
+The second parameter is the previous QoS value.
+The third parameter is the current QoS value to update.
+
+And, there are also events used for device PM QoS add/update/remove request.
+
+dev_pm_qos_add_request             "device=%s type=%s new_value=%d"
+dev_pm_qos_update_request          "device=%s type=%s new_value=%d"
+dev_pm_qos_remove_request          "device=%s type=%s new_value=%d"
+
+The first parameter gives the device name which tries to add/update/remove
+QoS requests.
+The second parameter gives the request type (e.g. "DEV_PM_QOS_LATENCY").
+The third parameter is value to be added/updated/removed.
