From 9f3ba362d84786af8e1ab36a32fb337882b8648c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tyrel Datwyler Date: Sat, 8 Dec 2018 17:48:27 -0600 Subject: powerpc/pseries: export timebase register sample in lparcfg The Processor Utilzation of Resource Registers (PURR) provide an estimate of resources used by a cpu thread. Section 7.6 in Book III of the ISA outlines how to calculate the percentage of shared resources for threads using the ratio of the PURR delta and Timebase Register delta for a sampled period. This calculation is currently done erroneously by the lparstat tool from the powerpc-utils package. This patch exports the current timebase value after we sample the PURRs and exposes it to userspace accounting tools via /proc/ppc64/lparcfg.
