Re: intel_pstate_timer_func divide by zero oops

Is there any way to capture the beginning of this trace?

pid_param_set() is on the stack which means that something is changing
the debugfs parameters or the stack is FUBAR.

That  is -
	sample->pstate_pct_busy = 100 - div64_u64(
					sample->idletime_us * 100,
					sample->duration_us);


I don't see how duration_us can be zero unless somehow I am getting back-to-back
timer callbacks which seems unlikely since the timer is not re-armed until
the timer function is about to return and the driver has done all its work
for the sample period

--Dirk

So looks like sample->duration_us is 0? If so, that implies that
ktime_us_delta(now, cpu->prev_sample) is zero. I am not entirely sure how
to handle this case - return if sampling too early, or if there is some
other bug making the delta calculation go poof.


Thanks,

Parag
