Averaging with the previous sample brings a small statistical improvement to sampling counters, but can leek a little bit of state from a current client to the next which mulls the border between past and present for observing clients. This is because on event enable clients record the current counter value and use it as reference, but with rapid off-on event cycles, and due the delayed nature of sampling timer self-disarm, previous sample value does not get cleared under these circumstances. Solution is to stop averaging with the previous sample. This has a small downside of losing some precision with short and spiky signals, but the alternatives look too complicated for the benefit.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
