Someone (those 'smart' AI chats) interpreted them as cumulative time of all throttled threads/processes within a cgroup, and also due to missing description of "throttled_usec" in cgroup v2 in https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/cgroup-v2.html#cgroup-v2-cpu:~:text=nr_throttled-,throttled_usec,-nr_bursts > The source: > > void unthrottle_cfs_rq(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq) > { > ... > cfs_b->throttled_time += rq_clock(rq) - cfs_rq->throttled_clock; > ... > > static int cpu_extra_stat_show(struct seq_file *sf, struct > cgroup_subsys_state *css) > { > struct task_group *tg = css_tg(css); > struct cfs_bandwidth *cfs_b = &tg->cfs_bandwidth; > ... > throttled_usec = cfs_b->throttled_time; > > Costa > Thanks > Regards, AlexL _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
