Subject: [PATCH v2] sched/cputime: Ensure accurate utime and stime ratio in cputime_adjust()
If users access "/proc/pid/stat", the utime and stime ratio in the
current SAMPLE period are excepted, but currently cputime_adjust()
always calculates with the ratio of the WHOLE lifetime of the process.
This results in inaccurate utime and stime in "/proc/pid/stat". For
example, a process runs for a while with "50% usr, 0% sys", then
followed by "100% sys". For later while, the following is excepted:
0.0 usr, 100.0 sys
but we got:
10.0 usr, 90.0 sys
This patch uses the accurate ratio in cputime_adjust() to address the
issue. A new task_cputime type field is added in prev_cputime to record
previous task_cputime so that we can get the elapsed times as the accurate
ratio.
