![]() In calculating stolen time, we were trying to actually account for time spent in the hypervisor. We don't really have enough information to do that accurately, so don't try. Instead, we now calculate stolen time as time that the current cpu thread is not actually dispatching instructions. On chips without a PURR, we cannot do this, so stolen time will always be zero. On chips with a PURR, this is merely the difference between the elapsed PURR values and the elapsed TB values. This gives us much more sane vaules from tools such as mpstat, even if they are still a bit strange e.g. 2 busy threads on one cpu will both appear to have 50% user time and 50% stolen time while 1 busy thread on a cpu will look like 100% user on one of them and 100% idle on the other.
