The unit mentioned in the documentation of scheduler statistics is outdated which may mislead the readers. The unit of statistics that is reported by /proc/schedstat is modified to nanosecond, and the unit of statistics that is reported by /proc/PID/schedstat is provided as well to make the context consistent. The rq_cpu_time and the rq_sched_info.run_delay of a run queue, and the sched_info.run_delay of a task are all updated based on the clock of the run queue, while the se.sum_exec_runtime of a task is updated based on the clock_task of the run queue of the task. Both the clock and clock_task are relied on the return value of the function sched_clock() which is in the unit of nanosecond.

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.
