Never pay attention so deep about LTT, but honestly I am a bit surprised if LTT already has such framework that enable us to do that... > This is surprising that till date no mechanism has been in place to break up > kernel usage per kernel thread. IMO, generally Linux still has rooms for improvement regarding system statistics. Once there was no "swap" field that tells us how many pages owned by a process that are swapped out, now we have it. So, at time goes, I think we will slowly figure out what needs to be added in system wide or per thread/process statistics. Demands are the trigger I believe, just like law of economics :D regards, Mulyadi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to [email protected] Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
