Subject: [PATCH v3] perf/sched: fix for getting task's execution time
Date: Wed, 09 Dec 2009 17:57:03 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B1F746F.8040907@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4B1F7322.80103@cn.fujitsu.com>

In current code, task's execute time is got by reading
'/proc/<pid>/sched' file, it's wrong if the task is created
by pthread_create(), because every thread task has same pid.

This way also has two demerits:

1: 'perf sched replay' can't work if the kernel not compile
    with 'CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG' option
2: perf tool should depend on proc file system

So, this patch use PERF_COUNT_SW_TASK_CLOCK to get task's
execution time instead of reading /proc file

Changelog v2 -> v3:
use PERF_COUNT_SW_TASK_CLOCK instead of rusage() as Ingo's suggestion
