sched/cputime: Fix invalid gtime in proc
/proc/stats shows invalid gtime when the thread is running in guest.
When vtime accounting is not enabled, we cannot get a valid delta.
The delta is calculated with now - tsk->vtime_snap, but tsk->vtime_snap
is only updated when vtime accounting is runtime enabled.
This patch makes task_gtime() just return gtime without computing the
buggy non-existing tickless delta when vtime accounting is not enabled.
Use context_tracking_is_enabled() to check if vtime is accounting on
some cpu, in which case only we need to check the tickless delta. This
way we fix the gtime value regression on machines not running nohz full.
The kernel config contains CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN=y and
CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL_ALL=n and boot without nohz_full.
I ran and stop a busy loop in VM and see the gtime in host.
Dump the 43rd field which shows the gtime in every second:
# while :; do awk '{print $3" "$43}' /proc/3955/task/4014/stat; sleep 1; done
S 4348
R 7064566
R 7064766
R 7064967
R 7065168
S 4759
S 4759
During running busy loop, it returns large value.
After applying this patch, we can see right gtime.
# while :; do awk '{print $3" "$43}' /proc/10913/task/10956/stat; sleep 1; done
