Tried torvalds/master, no problem, looking at what the top's screen refresh thread does we can see: [root@ssdandy ~]# trace -t 3562 -e \!write 0.000 ( 0.000 ms): ... [continued]: poll()) = 0 Timeout 2031.522 (2002.480 ms): poll(ufds: 0x7fbb91596bb0, nfds: 1, timeout_msecs: 2000 ) = 0 Timeout 4064.346 (2002.456 ms): poll(ufds: 0x7fbb91596bb0, nfds: 1, timeout_msecs: 2000 ) = 0 Timeout ^C[root@ssdandy ~]# I.e. waiting the default of: .delay_secs = 2, 2 seconds between refreshes. Checking out tip.tip, or are you suggesting to try an old perf binary, from 3.11 or 3.10 on top of a newer kernel? - Arnaldo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
