CPUID: processor ID IrqId: IRQ ID Frequency (Hz): the number of interruptions per second (Hz) Total Duration (nsec): the sum of each interrupt duration in nsec Duration standard deviation (nsec): taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation Duration Standard_deviation = sqrt(1/N Sum ((xi -Xa)^2)) where N: the total number of interrupts xi: the duration of an interrupt Xa: the average duration is the total duration divided by the total number of interrupts (N) Max IRQ handler duration (nsec) [time interval]: the longest IRQ handler duration in nsec. Average period (nsec): 1/Frequency Period Standard_deviation = sqrt(1/N Sum ((xi -Xa)^2)) where N: number of interrupts xi: duration of an interrupt Xa: Average period in nsec
