[mdb-discuss] A question about SWITCH field in the output of cpuinfo

[shu ming]

Here is the example:

ID ADDR             FLG NRUN BSPL PRI RNRN KRNRN SWITCH THREAD           PROC
  0 fffffffffbc259b0  1b    1    0  -1   no    no t-0    ffffff0003e05c80
 (idle)
                       |    |
            RUNNING <--+    +-->  PRI THREAD           PROC
              READY         
             EXISTS         
             ENABLE         

I was told that SWITCH stood for the ticks passed when the thread was on CPU in 
one second base.  Is it correct? Can somebody explain it in more detail? And 
how can I know where SWITCH is from cpu struct?
