Subject: [PATCH] documentation: Add desc of new cpu fields in /proc/stat
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2008 19:43:52 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080129084352.GA4221@zip.com.au> (raw)
Today I noticed that a new field cropped up in /proc/stat. The git patch
that made it is 5e84cfde51cf303d368fcb48f22059f37b3872de. I hope the
following description is adequately accurate. I tried to keep it short.
