[patch 19/33] xen: Account for time stolen by Xen

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch accounts for the time Xen steals from our VCPUs.  Stolen
time is time where a vcpu is runnable and could be running, but all
available physical CPUs are being used for something else.

This accounting gets run on each timer interrupt, just as a way to get
it run relatively often, and when interesting things are going on.
Stolen time is not really used by much in the kernel; it is reported
in /proc/stats, and that's about it.
