RCU statistics 2.5.48
PATCH 1/1 RCU statistics 2.5.48
Linus,
This patch makes some basic statistics for RCU available in /proc/rcu. The statistics made available by this patch are very generic in nature - # of RCU requests and # of actual RCU updates for each CPU. This will allow us to monitor the health of the RCU subsystem and such things have been extremely useful for me to investigate problems. For example, if a CPU looping in kernel stops RCU grace period from completing, we would be easily able to detect it by looking at these counters. With IPC and module unloading in 2.5 kernel using RCU, we *need* this ASAP.
This is a rediff of an earlier version published in lkml and included in -mm. Please apply.
[dipankar@llm04 dipankar]$ cat /proc/rcu
CPU : 0
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0
CPU : 1
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0
CPU : 2
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0
CPU : 3
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0
Thanks
