Naturally there > is quite a large comment discussing this. I'm a bit curious why we're OK with changing other characters but not 'I'. Even if the scheduler use of the character 'I' is a bit confusing, it still seems like it might be nice to match it just to avoid confusion. Couldn't we use lowercase 'i' for idle CPUs?

I've been though a couple of iterations and nothing felt 100% right (to the extent I should probably have marked the patch RFC). There is another thing I left for a later patch... and that is that the logic to hide sleeping kernel threads (called system daemons in the comments) is also rather broken at present since, in the modern kernel, the majority of sleeping system deamons today tend to be doing uninterruptible sleeps (and many are marked no load and are reported as idle). That means that the S -> M translation needs to change since the way it hides processes is too unpredictable. I think it needs to become an S -> s, D -> d and, if we keep I, I -> i. Or, putting it another way, once we fix the S -> M translations, then finding a character that implies idle and does not collide with the existing set is very hard. Perhaps '-' might be a good way to mark idle tasks? It's different that the not-really-a-task nature of idle tasks might be obvious.

I already have the patch written but I'd like to keep it decoupled from the this one due to the warning fix aspect (I'll note in header). Daniel.

I was just thinking of: Fixes: 2f064a59a11f ("sched: Change task_struct::state") I know that the logic was still wrong before that patch, but before that patch at least there was no Warning reported. -Doug

Currently kdb contains some open-coded routines to generate a summary character for each task. This code currently issues warnings, is almost certainly broken and won't make any sense to any kernel dev who has ever used /proc to examine tasks (D means uninterruptible?). Fix both the warning and the potential for confusion but adopting the scheduler's task clasification. Whilst doing this we also simplify the filtering by using mask strings directly (this means we don't have to guess all the characters the scheduler might give us). Unfortunately we can't quite adopt the scheudler classification it in its entirity because, whilst we can tolerate some changes to the filter characters, we need to keep I as a means to identify idle CPUs rather than system daemons that don't contribute to the load average! Naturally there is quite a large comment discussing this.
