From: Carsten Emde Thanks to the wonders of modern technology, the local trace clock can now run backwards. Since this never happened before, the time difference between now and somewhat earlier was expected to never become negative and, thus, stored in an unsigned integer variable. Nowadays, we need a signed integer to ensure that the value is stored as underflow in the related histogram. (In cases where this is not a misfunction, bipolar histograms can be used.) This patch takes care that all latency variables are represented as signed integers and negative numbers are considered as histogram underflows. In one of the misbehaving processors switching to global clock solved the problem: echo global >/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_clock Signed-off-by: Carsten Emde Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt --- include/linux/sched.h | 2 +- kernel/trace/latency_hist.c | 71 ++++++++++++++++++++++--------------------- 2 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 35 deletions(-) diff --git a/include/linux/sched.h b/include/linux/sched.h index 77e132f..beffba3 100644 --- a/include/linux/sched.h +++ b/include/linux/sched.h @@ -1580,7 +1580,7 @@ struct task_struct { #ifdef CONFIG_WAKEUP_LATENCY_HIST u64 preempt_timestamp_hist;
