the
instances are simply idling. With NO_HZ applied, the change is minimal with
C3 residency still approximately 98%. UML is not even among the top three of
the bad-list of wakers-up :-)

e put my
finger on where it is happening, but when CONFIG_NO_HZ is not enabled, the
timer_one_shot() is not being called at all. This means that the timer is
never set and hence returns 0 as old value whenever setitimer is called
later.
Hope that helps,

as expected. Like you said, it looks broken, and has to be fixed.

do_nanosleep()). Yup this is a bad thing from the power consumption
viewpoint and you would like the processor to be in higher C-states most of
the time.
