It appears that you are changing the semantics of the information here.


For example, in the case:
- devfreq started at 0 w/ 100MHz
- at 10, devfreq monitor starts w/ 100MHz
- at 20, devfreq updates the freq to 200MHz
- at 30, devfreq is requested to show the stat

The conventional:
20 @ 100MHz / 10 @ 200MHz

You proposed:
10 @ 100MHz / 10 @ 200MHz


Could you please give some reasons why the latter is "more accurate"?
To me, the former seems appropriate.



Cheers,
MyungJoo
