Hi,

I keep seeing the following timer stat -
1,     1 init             hrtimer_start_range_ns (hrtimer_wakeup)

Can anyone please explain what init process cases this ?
which meego version is this on?
On an old internal build from Oct, 14th, we are also seeing this timer. (15 sec 
timer from init process)
John was supposed to look at this this week.
John, do you have any news on this ?
init will check every 15 seconds or so if there's zombies to reap.
we could make it 30 if it shows up as a power issue.
After using the ftrace - func_stack_trace I found that the fs/select.c - 
"select" system call is calling schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock each time the 
init process wakes up the system.
So my assumption is that a userland application or the init process itself is using the 
"select" system call to wait on a file descriptor.
Pierre/Arjan have you seen this behavior before?
I am having trouble finding out which is the exact userland application it 
is....


it'll be init I suspect.


but.... why not run powertop 1.99 .. it'll tell you in quite a bit of detail who's waking the CPU up ;-)
