linux-toradex.git/include/asm-s390/cpu.h, branch v2.6.24.2 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules [S390] Add per-cpu idle time / idle count sysfs attributes. 2007-10-22T10:52:47+00:00 Heiko Carstens heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com 2007-10-22T10:52:39+00:00 fae8b22d3e3e3a3d317a7746493997af02a3f35c Add two new sysfs entries per cpu: idle_count and idle_time. idle_count contains the number of times a cpu went into idle state. idle_time contains the time a cpu spent in idle state in microseconds.

Add two new sysfs entries per cpu: idle_count and idle_time.
idle_count contains the number of times a cpu went into idle state.
idle_time contains the time a cpu spent in idle state in microseconds.
This can be used e.g. by powertop to tell how often idle state is
entered and left.
