Pre-processing /proc data during the build considerably reduces the
amount of data written to disk: 176KB instead of 4.7MB for a 20
minuted build. Parsing also becomes faster.
buildstats.bbclass only writes the reduced logs now, but support for
the full /proc files is kept around as reference.

The internal representation after parsing now matches exactly
what the drawing code needs, thus speeding up drawing a bit.
However, the main motivation is to store exactly that required
information in a more compact file.

This adds a new, separate chart showing the amount of disk space used
over time for each volume monitored during the build. The hight of the
graph entries represents the delta between current usage and minimal
usage during the build.
That's more useful than showing just the current usage, because then a
graph showing changes in the order of MBs in a volume that is several
GB large would be just flat.
The legend shows the maximum of those deltas, i.e. maximum amount of
space needed for the build. Minor caveat: sampling of disk space usage
starts a bit later than the initial task, so the displayed value may
be slightly lower than the actual amount of space needed because
sampling does not record the actual initial state.

This enables rendering of the original bootchart charts for CPU, disk

updated buildstats.bbclass. Currently, empty charts CPU and disk usage
charts are drawn if that data is not present; the memory chart already
gets skipped when there's no data, which will also have to be added
for the other two.

Substracting curr_y when determining the hight of the process chart is
wrong because the height is independent of the position where the
chart is about to be drawn. It happens to work at the moment because
curr_y is always 10 when render_processes_chart() gets called. But it
leads to a negative height when other charts are drawn above it, and
then the grid gets drawn on top of those other charts.
Substracting some constant is relevant because otherwise the box is
slightly larger than the process bars. Not sure exactly where that
comes from (text height?); leg_s seems a suitable constant and happens
to be 10, so everything still gets rendered exactly as before.

To support yocto on systems with python3 as default version, scripts
should use /usr/bin/env python in the shebang, as this allows the use of
a fake env to mimic python2 as default version.
This patch simply replaces occurrences of #!/usr/bin/python with
#!/usr/bin/env python and was done with this oneliner:
git grep -lE '^#!/usr/bin/python' | xargs \
sed -i 's|/usr/bin/python|/usr/bin/env python|'

The original patch is from Richard, I rebased it to the up-to-date
upstream code, here are the original messages from him:
We have just merged Beth's initial buildstats logging work. I was
sitting wondering how to actually evaluate the numbers as I wanted to
know "where are we spending the time?".
It occurred to me that I wanted a graph very similar to that generated
by bootchart. I looked around and found pyboootchartgui and then hacked
it around a bit and coerced it to start producing charts like:
http://tim.rpsys.net/bootchart.png
which is the initial "pseudo-native" part of the build. This was simple
enough to test with.
I then tried graphing a poky-image-sato. To get a graph I could actually
read, I stripped out any task taking less than 8 seconds and scaled the
x axis from 25 units per second to one unit per second. The result was:
http://tim.rpsys.net/bootchart2.png
(warning this is a 2.7MB png)
I also added in a little bit of colour coding for the second chart.
Interestingly it looks like there is more yellow than green meaning
configure is a bigger drain on the build time not that its
unexpected :/.
I quite enjoyed playing with this and on a serious note, the gradient of
the task graph makes me a little suspicious of whether the overhead of
launching tasks in bitbake itself is having some effect on build time.
Certainly on the first graph there are some interesting latencies
showing up.
Anyhow, I think this is the first time bitbake's task execution has been
visualised and there are some interesting things we can learn from it.
I'm hoping this is a start of a much more detailed understanding of the
build process with respect to performance.
