+ * CONFIG_LATENCYTOP enables a kernel latency tracking infrastructure that is
+ * used by the "latencytop" userspace tool. The latency that is tracked is not
+ * the 'traditional' interrupt latency (which is primarily caused by something
+ * else consuming CPU), but instead, it is the latency an application encounters
+ * because the kernel sleeps on its behalf for various reasons.
+ *
+ * This code tracks 2 levels of statistics:
+ * 1) System level latency
+ * 2) Per process latency
+ *
+ * The latency is stored in fixed sized data structures in an accumulated form;
+ * if the "same" latency cause is hit twice, this will be tracked as one entry
+ * in the data structure. Both the count, total accumulated latency and maximum
+ * latency are tracked in this data structure. When the fixed size structure is
+ * full, no new causes are tracked until the buffer is flushed by writing to
+ * the /proc file; the userspace tool does this on a regular basis.
+ *
+ * A latency cause is identified by a stringified backtrace at the point that
+ * the scheduler gets invoked. The userland tool will use this string to
+ * identify the cause of the latency in human readable form.
+ *
+ * The information is exported via /proc/latency_stats and /proc/<pid>/latency.
+ * These files look like this:
+ *
+ * Latency Top version : v0.1
+ * 70 59433 4897 i915_irq_wait drm_ioctl vfs_ioctl do_vfs_ioctl sys_ioctl
+ * | | | |
+ * | | | +----> the stringified backtrace
+ * | | +---------> The maximum latency for this entry in microseconds
+ * | +--------------> The accumulated latency for this entry (microseconds)
+ * +-------------------> The number of times this entry is hit
+ *
+ * (note: the average latency is the accumulated latency divided by the number
+ * of times)
