Mike, please submit this patch to the upstream kernel before 4.2 is released, so that the all the kernels that support the options "precise_timestamps" and "histogram" also report these values back. From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx> If the user selected precise timestamps or histogram, report it in the output of the @stats_list message. If the user didn't select these options, no extra tokens are reported, thus it is backward compatible with old software that doesn't know about precise timestamps and histogram.
