getrusage(RUSAGE_THREAD) with nohz_full may return shorter utime/stime than the actual time. task_cputime_adjusted() snapshots utime and stime and then adjust their sum to match the scheduler maintained cputime.sum_exec_runtime. Unfortunately in nohz_full, sum_exec_runtime is only updated once per second in the worst case, causing a discrepancy against utime and stime that can be updated anytime by the reader using vtime. To fix this situation, perform an update of cputime.sum_exec_runtime when the cputime snapshot reports the task as actually running while the tick is disabled. The related overhead is then contained within the relevant situations.

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.
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.
