hi,
the man page for "proc" says for the /proc/[pid]/stat files the field
"itrealvalue":
"Since kernel 2.6.17, this field is no longer maintained, and is hard
coded as 0."
Looking at the kernel source[1] however, I see that the field is not
hard coded as 0 but instead has been removed completely. Since this may
result in a one-off when searching for a specific field, it should be
documented correctly.
Best regards,
Andre
[1] compare the relevant file of 2.6.16 and 2.6.17
