Mainly a resync.
. Manfred sent me a revised unmap-page-debugging patch which promptly
broke. All slab changes have been dropped out so he can have a clear run
at that.
. New toy. Called, for the lack of a better name, "sleepometer":
An instrumentation patch which attempts to work out where all that idle
time is coming from.
cat /proc/sleepo
fs/select.c:255(schedule_timeout) 119 204415008 1717773 37026565
kernel/exit.c:1056(schedule) 10 47496358 4749635 23686014
fs/namei.c:1247(down) 1 53708 53708 53708
fs/namei.c:344(down) 4 67425 16856 33478
fs/jbd/journal.c:197(schedule) 5 96894718 19378943 44777091
Tells us that four down() attempts at fs/namei.c:344 blocked. The total
amount of time spent blocked was 67425 microseconds. The average was 16845
us and the maximum was 33478 us.
Bear in mind that if 100 processes block at a certain point for one
second, this tool will claim that 100 seconds were spent blocked at that
point.
Which is quite reasonable, but some care is needed when interpreting the
results.
The following operations are instrumented:
down()
down_read()
down_write()
schedule()
schedule_timeout()
io_schedule()
io_schedule_timeout()
CONFIG_SLEEPOMETER is currently broken with CONFIG_PREEMPT due to
#include hell.
Reading /proc/sleepo clears all the current stats.
