-The amount of time, measured in units of
-USER_HZ (1/100ths of a second on most architectures, use
-.I sysconf(_SC_CLK_TCK)
-to obtain the right value),
-.\" 1024 on Alpha and ia64
-that the system ("cpu" line) or the specific CPU ("cpu\fIN\fR" line)
-spent in various states:
-.RS
-.TP
-.I user
-(1) Time spent in user mode.
-.TP
-.I nice
-(2) Time spent in user mode with low priority (nice).
-.TP
-.I system
-(3) Time spent in system mode.
-.TP
-.I idle
-(4) Time spent in the idle task.
-.\" FIXME . Actually, the following info about the /proc/stat 'cpu' field
-.\" does not seem to be quite right (at least in Linux 2.6.12 or Linux 3.6):
-.\" the idle time in /proc/uptime does not quite match this value
-This value should be USER_HZ times the
-second entry in the
-.I /proc/uptime
-pseudo-file.
-.TP
-.IR iowait " (since Linux 2.5.41)"
-(5) Time waiting for I/O to complete.
-This value is not reliable, for the following reasons:
-.\" See kernel commit 9c240d757658a3ae9968dd309e674c61f07c7f48
-.RS
-.IP \[bu] 3
-The CPU will not wait for I/O to complete;
-iowait is the time that a task is waiting for I/O to complete.
-When a CPU goes into idle state for outstanding task I/O,
-another task will be scheduled on this CPU.
-.IP \[bu]
-On a multi-core CPU,
-the task waiting for I/O to complete is not running on any CPU,
-so the iowait of each CPU is difficult to calculate.
-.IP \[bu]
-The value in this field may
-.I decrease
-in certain conditions.

-operating systems under the control of the Linux kernel.
