It becomes common with a patch like dynamic ticks, where we purposefully skip ticks when CPU is idle. When the CPU wakes up, we have to regain the lost/skipped ticks and thats where I ran into incorrect lost-tick calculation issues. > interrupts for so long (or if it's a hardware issue)?

Dyn-tick patch is enought to simulate these lost ticks! -- Thanks and Regards, Srivatsa Vaddagiri, Linux Technology Center, IBM Software Labs, Bangalore, INDIA - 560017 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
