I couldn't think of a sane way. There are a few times when I want to see the idle processes, but mostly I don't want to see them and want all the other settings (idle, system, threads, etc.) to be orthogonal. I'd even be up for defaulting kdile to No so we don't show the idle threads by default. That would match the behavior of 4.x where there were no idle threads. > > @@ -1075,7 +1081,13 @@ > > reset_display(); > > putchar('\r'); > > break; > > - > > + case CMD_kidletog: > > + ps.kidle = !ps.kidle; > > + new_message(MT_standout | MT_delayed, > > + " %sisplaying kernel idle process.", > > > + ps.idle ?
