Hi,
I ported my old latency-profiling patch to 2.4.10-pre10 with
the reschedulable kernel patch. (I have not checked that it is
preemption safe itself...)
This patch works a little different from Robert Loves.
Since it samples the execution location at ticks.
It is possible to instrument an ordinary kernel too...
These are the results (>5 ms):
