Currently, iocg->usages[] which are used to guide inuse adjustments are calculated from vtime deltas. This, however, assumes that the hierarchical inuse weight at the time of calculation held for the entire period, which often isn't true and can lead to significant errors. Now that we have absolute usage information collected, we can derive iocg->usages[] from iocg->local_stat.usage_us so that inuse adjustment decisions are made based on actual absolute usage. The calculated usage is clamped between 1 and WEIGHT_ONE and WEIGHT_ONE is also used to signal saturation regardless of the current hierarchical inuse weight.

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.
