From a130e8fbc7de796eb6e680724d87f4737a26d0ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Josh Don Date: Fri, 27 Aug 2021 09:54:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fs/proc/uptime.c: Fix idle time reporting in /proc/uptime /proc/uptime reports idle time by reading the CPUTIME_IDLE field from the per-cpu kcpustats. However, on NO_HZ systems, idle time is not continually updated on idle cpus, leading this value to appear incorrectly small. /proc/stat performs an accounting update when reading idle time; we can use the same approach for uptime. With this patch, /proc/stat and /proc/uptime now agree on idle time. Additionally, the following shows idle time tick up consistently on an idle machine: (while true; do cat /proc/uptime; sleep 1; done) | awk '{print $2-prev; prev=$2}' Reported-by: Luigi Rizzo Signed-off-by: Josh Don Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210827165438.3280779-1-joshdon@google.com --- fs/proc/stat.c | 4 ++-- fs/proc/uptime.c | 14 +++++++++----- include/linux/kernel_stat.h | 1 + 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/fs/proc/stat.c b/fs/proc/stat.c index 6561a06..4fb8729 100644 --- a/fs/proc/stat.c +++ b/fs/proc/stat.c @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ #ifdef arch_idle_time -static u64 get_idle_time(struct kernel_cpustat *kcs, int cpu) +u64 get_idle_time(struct kernel_cpustat *kcs, int cpu) { u64 idle; @@ -46,7 +46,7 @@ static u64 get_iowait_time(struct kernel_cpustat *kcs, int cpu) #else -static u64 get_idle_time(struct kernel_cpustat *kcs, int cpu) +u64 get_idle_time(struct kernel_cpustat *kcs, int cpu) { u64 idle, idle_usecs = -1ULL; diff --git a/fs/proc/uptime.c b/fs/proc/uptime.c index 5a1b228..deb99bc9 100644 --- a/fs/proc/uptime.c +++ b/fs/proc/uptime.c @@ -12,18 +12,22 @@ static int uptime_proc_show(struct seq_file *m, void *v) { struct timespec64 uptime; struct timespec64 idle; - u64 nsec; + u64 idle_nsec; u32 rem; int i; - nsec = 0; - for_each_possible_cpu(i) - nsec += (__force u64) kcpustat_cpu(i).cpustat[CPUTIME_IDLE]; + idle_nsec = 0; + for_each_possible_cpu(i) { + struct kernel_cpustat kcs; + + kcpustat_cpu_fetch(&kcs, i); + idle_nsec += get_idle_time(&kcs, i); + } ktime_get_boottime_ts64(&uptime); timens_add_boottime(&uptime); - idle.tv_sec = div_u64_rem(nsec, NSEC_PER_SEC, &rem); + idle.tv_sec = div_u64_rem(idle_nsec, NSEC_PER_SEC, &rem); idle.tv_nsec = rem; seq_printf(m, "%lu.%02lu %lu.%02lu\n", (unsigned long) uptime.tv_sec, diff --git a/include/linux/kernel_stat.h b/include/linux/kernel_stat.h index 44ae1a7..69ae6b2 100644 --- a/include/linux/kernel_stat.h +++ b/include/linux/kernel_stat.h @@ -102,6 +102,7 @@ extern void account_system_index_time(struct task_struct *, u64, enum cpu_usage_stat); extern void account_steal_time(u64); extern void account_idle_time(u64); +extern u64 get_idle_time(struct kernel_cpustat *kcs, int cpu); #ifdef CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE static inline void account_process_tick(struct task_struct *tsk, int user) -- 2.7.4
