Hello,

There's a new feature in kernel >= 2.6.20, which allows the user to get I/O stats from /proc/self/io, this feature is being used by iotop ( an I/O top-like python script, http://guichaz.free.fr/misc/iotop.py )...

Can this Feature be added to the kernel please??
General Setup -->
[*] Export task/process statistics through netlink (CONFIG_TASKSTATS)
[*] Enable extended accounting over taskstats (CONFIG_TASK_XACCT)
[*] Enable per-task storage I/O accounting (CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING)

I would really appreciate it guys.

Thx :)
This task depends upon
