cycle_thief.stp - Track IRQ's and Other Processes Stealing Cycles from a Task
Description:
The cycle_thief.stp script instruments the scheduler and IRQ handler
to determine which processes and interrupts are competing with the
specified task for the cpu cycles. This script uses the '-c' or '-x'
options to focus on a specific task. The script output the number of
times the task migrates between processors, histograms showing the
length of time on and off processor, lists of processes running while
the task is off the processor, and the interrupts that occurred while
the task was running.

The output from running the script for ~10 seconds.
The histograms provide a visual of the time a process spent on, or off. The
sampled processes are listed below the histograms to give a sense of what
was running at the time.
As mentioned in the description, the script can be focused on a certain process
with -c/-x.
