14  * CONFIG_LATENCYTOP enables a kernel latency tracking infrastructure that is
15  * used by the "latencytop" userspace tool. The latency that is tracked is not
16  * the 'traditional' interrupt latency (which is primarily caused by something
17  * else consuming CPU), but instead, it is the latency an application encounters
18  * because the kernel sleeps on its behalf for various reasons.
19  *
20  * This code tracks 2 levels of statistics:
21  * 1) System level latency
22  * 2) Per process latency
23  *
24  * The latency is stored in fixed sized data structures in an accumulated form;
25  * if the "same" latency cause is hit twice, this will be tracked as one entry
26  * in the data structure. Both the count, total accumulated latency and maximum
27  * latency are tracked in this data structure. When the fixed size structure is
28  * full, no new causes are tracked until the buffer is flushed by writing to
29  * the /proc file; the userspace tool does this on a regular basis.
30  *
31  * A latency cause is identified by a stringified backtrace at the point that
32  * the scheduler gets invoked. The userland tool will use this string to
33  * identify the cause of the latency in human readable form.
34  *
35  * The information is exported via /proc/latency_stats and /proc/<pid>/latency.
36  * These files look like this:
37  *
38  * Latency Top version : v0.1
39  * 70 59433 4897 i915_irq_wait drm_ioctl vfs_ioctl do_vfs_ioctl sys_ioctl
40  * |    |    |    |
41  * |    |    |    +----> the stringified backtrace
42  * |    |    +---------> The maximum latency for this entry in microseconds
43  * |    +--------------> The accumulated latency for this entry (microseconds)
44  * +-------------------> The number of times this entry is hit
45  *
46  * (note: the average latency is the accumulated latency divided by the number
47  * of times)
