Subject: [PATCH] rt: shorten posix_cpu_timers/<CPU> kernel thread names
Date: Wed, 13 Aug 2008 15:42:11 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080813184211.GD2240@ghostprotocols.net> (raw)
Shorten the softirq kernel thread names because they always overflow the
limited comm length, appearing as "posix_cpu_timer" CPU# times.
Done on 2.6.24.7, but probably applicable to later kernels.
