Subject: [PATCH 1/2] io_uring/sqpoll: switch away from getrusage() for CPU accounting
Date: Wed, 22 Oct 2025 11:02:47 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251022170416.116554-2-axboe@kernel.dk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251022170416.116554-1-axboe@kernel.dk>
getrusage() does a lot more than what the SQPOLL accounting needs, the
latter only cares about (and uses) the stime. Rather than do a full
RUSAGE_SELF summation, just query the used stime instead.
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org
