Subject: Provide individual CPU usage measurement based on idle time
From: Carsten Emde <C.Emde@osadl.org>

The various methods to determine CPU usage and load have a number of
disadvantages (see also Documentation/cpu-load.txt), and a
straight-forward method to gain usage information about a particular CPU
is lacking. However, in the context of setting CPU affinity and
isolation, it is often required to monitor the effective usage ratio of
a CPU.

This patch adds an additional CPU usage measuring method that is based
on idle time processing. The data are available for every CPU in
/proc/idleruntime/cpuN/data in the format "<idletime> <runtime>". The
counters can be reset by writing to /proc/idleruntime/cpuN/reset.

To calculate the per-core CPU usage since the most recent reset, divide
the runtime by the sum of runtime plus idletime, e.g.

# for i in `ls -1d /proc/idleruntime/cpu* | sort -nk1.22`
> do
>   echo "$i: `awk '{ print (100.0*$2) / ($1+$2)"%" }' <$i/data`"
>   echo 1 >$i/reset
> done
/proc/idleruntime/cpu0: 72.0048%
/proc/idleruntime/cpu1: 5.49522%
/proc/idleruntime/cpu2: 0.27916%
/proc/idleruntime/cpu3: 32.3493%

In addition, summed up data of all present CPUs are available in
/proc/idleruntime/all in the same format as above. Thus, to calculate
the overall CPU usage since the most recent reset, the following command
may be used:
awk '{ print (100.0*$2) / ($1+$2)"%" }' </proc/idleruntime/all/data

To reset the counters althogether write to /proc/idleruntime/all/reset.

+	  If you say Y here, individual CPU usage data will be provided that are
+	  based on idle processing. The data are available for every CPU and for
+	  all present CPUs summed up in /proc/idleruntime/cpuN/data and
+	  /proc/idleruntime/all/data, respectively, in the format
+	  "<idletime> <runtime>". The counters can be reset by writing to
+	  /proc/idleruntime/cpuN/reset separately for every CPU and to
+	  /proc/idleruntime/all/reset for all present CPUs at once. To calculate
+	  the CPU usage since the most recent reset, the runtime must be devided
+	  by the sum of idletime plus runtime
+	    awk '{print (100.0*$2) / ($1+$2)"%"}' </proc/idleruntime/cpu0/data
