Re: [Xen-ia64-devel] [PATCH][3/3] Steal time accounting	forPVdomain/IA64 
| Hi, Isaku
Thank you for your comments.
The stolentick is composed of blocked, stolen and truely running time.
The consider_steal_time() only treats above blocked and stolen value.
So it does not need to add itm_delta more.
P.S.
If you confuse the name of stolentick, please forgive me.
Thanks
