[DragonFlyBSD - Bug #2447] TOP isn't reporting correctly CPU states without -M

[John Marino via Redmine]

Issue #2447 has been updated by John Marino.


If you take "top" to only apply to CPU#1, doesn't the report then seem correct?

Does the manpage say it will average these values across CPUs when "-M" isn't used or are you just assuming it should be doing that?

Hello,

The top command isn't reporting the line "CPU states" correctly on my dual core laptop.

With the command "top", if a thread is eating 1 CPU, top reports 0.0% idle and 100% in user, it should displays 50% idle and 50% user
With the command "top -M", if a thread is eating 1 CPU, top reports 0.0% idle and 100% in user on CPU0, and 100.0% idle on CPU1, this is the correct one

On the screenshot attached, on the right you can see top -M and on the left, top. The command without -M seems to show only CPU0
