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