delayacct: track delays from IRQ/SOFTIRQ
Delay accounting does not track the delay of IRQ/SOFTIRQ. While
IRQ/SOFTIRQ could have obvious impact on some workloads productivity, such
as when workloads are running on system which is busy handling network
IRQ/SOFTIRQ.
Get the delay of IRQ/SOFTIRQ could help users to reduce such delay. Such
as setting interrupt affinity or task affinity, using kernel thread for
NAPI etc. This is inspired by "sched/psi: Add PSI_IRQ to track
IRQ/SOFTIRQ pressure"[1]. Also fix some code indent problems of older
code.
And update tools/accounting/getdelays.c:
/ # ./getdelays -p 156 -di
print delayacct stats ON
