Does it also meet all the in-kernel requirements for other accounting projects?
If not, what else do those other projects need?
Hi Andrew,
As the discussion in this thread of the past few days showed, this patch intends to take care of process grouping, but not the accounting data collection. Besides my concern of possibility of data loss, this patch also provides CSA information to handle process grouping as it intends to do. I plan to run some testing to see percentage of data loss when system is under stress test, but improvement at CBUS as Evgeniy indicated should help!
Please be advised that i still need an do_exit handling to save accounting data. But, it is a separate issue.
Thanks, - jay
