The patch titled
Track accurate idle time with tick_sched.idle_sleeptime
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
track-accurate-idle-time-with-tick_schedidle_sleeptime.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: Track accurate idle time with tick_sched.idle_sleeptime
From: Venki Pallipadi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Current idle time in kstat is based on jiffies and is coarse grained.
tick_sched.idle_sleeptime is making some attempt to keep track of idle time
in a fine grained manner. But, it is not handling the time spent in
interrupts fully.
Make tick_sched.idle_sleeptime accurate with respect to time spent on
handling interrupts and also add tick_sched.idle_lastupdate, which keeps
track of last time when idle_sleeptime was updated.
This statistics will be crucial for cpufreq-ondemand governor, which can
shed some conservative gaurd band that is uses today while setting the
frequency. The ondemand changes that uses the exact idle time is coming
soon.
