RCU statistics 2.5.46

Subject:  [PATCH] RCU statistics 2.5.46
Date:  Thu, 7 Nov 2002 12:47:29 +0530

This patch makes some basic statistics for RCU available in /proc/rcu.
It is a trimmed down version of the earler rcu_stats patch in -mm kernels.
I removed all the RCU implementation dependent stats (mostly needed for
debugging) and retained only the part that was very generic in
nature - # of RCU requests and # of actual RCU updates for each
CPU. This will allow us to monitor the health of the RCU
subsystem and such things have been extremely useful for me to
investigate problems.

[dipankar@llm04 dipankar]$ cat /proc/rcu
CPU : 0
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0

CPU : 1
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0

CPU : 2
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0

CPU : 3
RCU requests : 0
RCU updates : 0

Thanks
