    sched: Export ns irqtimes through /proc/stat · abb74cef
    Venkatesh Pallipadi authored
    CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING adds ns granularity irq time on each CPU.
    This info is already used in scheduler to do proper task chargeback
    (earlier patches). This patch retro-fits this ns granularity
    hardirq and softirq information to /proc/stat irq and softirq fields.
    
    The update is still done on timer tick, where we look at accumulated
    ns hardirq/softirq time and account the tick to user/system/irq/hardirq/guest
    accordingly.
    
    No new interface added.
    
    Earlier versions looked at adding this as new fields in some /proc
    files. This one seems to be the best in terms of impact to existing
    apps, even though it has somewhat more kernel code than earlier versions.
