[PATCH] sleep profiling
Implement prof=sleep profiling. TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE sleeps will be taken
as a profile hit, and every millisecond spent sleeping causes a profile-hit
for the call site that initiated the sleep.
Sample readprofile output on i386:
306 ps2_sendbyte 1.3973
432 call_usermodehelper_keys 1.9548
484 ps2_command 0.6453
790 __driver_attach 4.7879
1593 msleep 44.2500
3976 sync_buffer 64.1290
4076 do_lookup 12.4648
8587 sync_page 122.6714
20820 total 0.0067
(NOTE: architectures need to check whether get_wchan() can be called from
deep within the wakeup path.)
akpm: we need to mark more functions __sched. lock_sock(), msleep(), others..
akpm: the contention in do_lookup() is a surprise. Presumably doing disk
reads for directory contents while holding i_mutex.
[akpm@osdl.org: various fixes]
