Subject: [GIT PULL] vtime: Delay cputime accounting to tick / context switch
Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2017 16:19:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1484061586-7245-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)

Ingo, Thomas,

Please pull the vtime/accumulate-for-tip branch that can be found at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks.git
	vtime/accumulate-for-tip

HEAD: 0fe66425659da25269280c106f39b333a0cfb9a9

---
The cputime accounting functions (account_system_time(),
account_user_time(), ...) happen to be costly especially under several
common configs. And with CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE those functions
are called on many fast paths such as context boundaries like
user <-> kernel, kernel <-> guest, kernel <-> idle, kernel <-> (soft)IRQ,
context switches, etc...

This set reduces this overhead by accumulating the cputime on context
boundaries and eventually delay the accounting of that accumulated time
on ticks and context switches only.
---

Thanks,
	Frederic
