Hi, Rafael
I tested your patch. It's much faster.
But from what I got, calling aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() asynchronously
with 10ms sleep takes much longer than calling aperfmperf_snapshot_khz()
synchronously.
Here's my result on 64 CPUs:
- async aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() w/ 10ms sleep:
# time cat /proc/cpuinfo > /dev/null
real 0m0.014s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.002s
- sync aperfmperf_snapshot_khz() w/o any sleep:
# time cat /proc/cpuinfo > /dev/null
real 0m0.002s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.002s
Thanks,
WANG Chao
