The patch titled Subject: vmstat: Reduce time interval to stat update on idle cpu has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was vmstat-reduce-time-interval-to-stat-update-on-idle-cpu.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Christoph Lameter <cl@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: vmstat: Reduce time interval to stat update on idle cpu It was noted that the vm stat shepherd runs every 2 seconds and that the vmstat update is then scheduled 2 seconds in the future. This yields an interval of double the time interval which is not desired. Change the shepherd so that it does not delay the vmstat update on the other cpu. We stil have to use schedule_delayed_work since we are using a delayed_work_struct but we can set the delay to 0.
