Yang Yang 662ce1dc9c delayacct: track delays from write-protect copy
Delay accounting does not track the delay of write-protect copy.  When
tasks trigger many write-protect copys(include COW and unsharing of
anonymous pages[1]), it may spend a amount of time waiting for them.  To
get the delay of tasks in write-protect copy, could help users to evaluate
the impact of using KSM or fork() or GUP.

Also update tools/accounting/getdelays.c:

    / # ./getdelays -dl -p 231
    print delayacct stats ON
    listen forever
    PID     231

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
