Subject: [PATCH 1/9] ia64: VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING (accurate cpu time accounting)
Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 13:33:59 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4714BDC7.1070702@jp.fujitsu.com> (raw)

> [1/9] ia64_add_config_virt_cpu_accounting.patch

The VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING option is already implemented s390
and powerpc archs.

By enabling this option, the arch can hook a function named
account_system_vtime() to irq_enter(), irq_exit(), and
head and tail of do_softirq().

This patch just add the Kconfig option to ia64, and enable
to hook ia64 specific account_system_vtime() function,
currently nop as generic one.

Thanks,
H.Seto
