Len Brown 072119606a tools/power turbostat: on SIGUSR1: sample, print and continue
Interval-mode turbostat now catches and discards SIGUSR1.

Thus, SIGUSR1 can be used to tell turbostat to cut short
the current measurement interval.  Turbostat will then start
the next measurement interval using the regular interval length.

This can be used to give turbostat variable intervals.
Invoke turbostat with --interval LARGE_NUMBER_SEC
and have a program that has permission to send it a SIGUSR1
always before LARGE_NUMBER_SEC expires.

It may also be useful to use "--enable Time_Of_Day_Seconds"
to observe the actual interval length.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
