Post subject: Latencytop Kernel Option
From www.latencytop.org
Quote:
LatencyTOP is a Linux* tool for software developers (both kernel and userspace), aimed at identifying where in the system latency is happening, and what kind of operation/action is causing the latency to happen so that the code can be changed to avoid the worst latency hiccups.
Since 2.6.25 kernels have this function built-in, is it possible to release (if this does not confict with something else) future sidux kernels with this option enabled ?
The userspace client (already in debian repos) exits with:
Code:
Error writing to /proc/sys/kernel/latencytop: No such file or directory
Error writing to /proc/sys/kernel/latencytop: No such file or directory
Are you root?
Please enable the CONFIG_LATENCYTOP configuration in your kernel.
Exiting...
I think it would make a nice addition.
