The latest patch1 seems to test OK, although your change to dump_task_runq_entry() that removes the leading spaces breaks the output format of "runq -d". But adding an INDENT(5) to dump_on_rq_tasks() fixes that. My suggestion re: a new -g flag would have it applicable to both CFS and RT run queues (even though the RT groups are currently being shown). I was thinking that it might be safest to have "runq" (with no argument) to just display a simple list of tasks, and only show group information with -g. Are you suggesting that -g would only apply to throttled cfs_rqs/rt_rqs? Dave -- Crash-utility mailing list Crash-utility@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/crash-utility
