This patch provides a recording mechanism to store data of potential sources of system latencies. The recordings separately determine the latency caused by a delayed timer expiration, by a delayed wakeup of the related user space program and by the sum of both. The histograms can be enabled and reset individually. The data are accessible via the debug filesystem. For details please consult Documentation/trace/histograms.txt.
