Description: Statistics counters are used in many places in the linux kernel including storage and network I/O subsystems, scheduler etc. Since accuracy is not very important, these counters are non-atomic, but they result in cache line bouncing among CPUs. Scalable Statistics Counter is a feature that provides the support for a low cache-penalty counter that can be used for statistics gathering. |
