I think the issue here is one of ambiguous language in the page: "tasks" here does not correspond to process (or "tasks" in the kernel sense of schedulable entities). It just means "work". To make this clearer, I've ajusted that sentence a little: The tms_stime field contains the CPU time spent executing inside the kernel while performing tasks on behalf of the calling process. Closing this bug now, since I think the problem is address. Please reopen if you still have concerns. |
