Yeah, this runtime schedstat_enabled thing is fairly recent, it used to be an always on/off kinda thing. At the time we figured inconsistencies from dynamically enabling/disabling it were okay, it's just stats after all. But if you now want to 'fix' that, then a full audit might be nice. > I have searched the codes, and found that these sched_stat_xxx's > xxx_start don't depend the schedstat_enabled > except the wait_start. OK, so you did the audit and only found this one issue? That's good Changelog material :-) Thanks!
