Bug#796674: Please enable CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS

[Michael Biebl]

Source: linux
Version: 4.1.5-1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

the current Debian Linux kernels have CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS disabled.

The systemd package ships a tool named systemd-bootchart [1] which can
be used to collect different metrics like CPU and memory usage and dist
utilization during boot and generate graphs from that information.

This tool requires CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS to be enabled. We would therefor
like to see this feature enabled in our Debian Linux kernels.

Regards,
Michael
