Public bug reported: Linux kernel has very useful task IO information (reflected into /proc/self/io and other places) similar to what 'vmstat' gives. It needs that in kernel configuration CONFIG_TASKSTATS and CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING are enabled. In current gutsy (2.6.22.14.21) kernel they are not enabled.
There is also very handy 'iotop.py' program available at http://guichaz.free.fr/misc/ ** Affects: linux-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- please enable CONFIG_TASKSTATS, especially CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157191 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
