pre-migration wait time is the time that a task unnecessarily spends
on the runqueue of a CPU but doesn't get switched-in there. In terms
of tracepoints, it is the time between sched:sched_wakeup and
sched:sched_migrate_task.
Let's say a task woke up on CPU2, then it got migrated to CPU4 and
then it's switched-in to CPU4. So, here pre-migration wait time is
time that it was waiting on runqueue of CPU2 after it is woken up.
The general pattern for pre-migration to occur is:
sched:sched_wakeup
sched:sched_migrate_task
sched:sched_switch
The sched:sched_waking event is used to capture the wakeup time,
as it aligns with the existing code and only introduces a negligible
time difference.
pre-migrations are generally not useful and it increases migrations.
This metric would be helpful in testing patches mainly related to wakeup
and load-balancer code paths as better wakeup logic would choose an
optimal CPU where task would be switched-in and thereby reducing pre-
migrations.
The sample output(s) when -P or --pre-migrations is used:

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
