Subject: timeval: Simplify poll interval logging.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d7a291ac1c105d9891c07cbb768e76947ad95963;p=openvswitch

timeval: Simplify poll interval logging.

log_poll_interval() is a little bit too aggressive, and is
therefore less useful than it could be.  This patch removes the
mean interval calculation, and simply logs if the poll loop took
longer than 1 second instead.
