出于好奇，我想知道我的程序被操作系统切换上下文的次数。就像保存所有寄存器一样，控件被传递给另一个进程或线程，然后一段时间后一切都恢复了，我们继续，因为它从未发生过。
系统是否在某处保留了这样的数字，或者是否有某种黑客或其他什么？
我特别在Linux上，但我也对其他系统感兴趣。
那么，让我们来研究一下这个案子。 Linux类型O / S系统地保留这些细节，人们可以使用舒适的python，既可以检查状态，也可以轻松设计监控系统，可以报告任何过度的情况（前者非常符合好奇情况，后者对于系统工作的任何重新工作/再利用非常方便）：
这里的python既有教育作用，也有进一步扩展功能范围的便利性和舒适性：
分配了signal.signal( signal.SIGALRM, SIG_ALRM_handler_A )和时间后，系统准备好报告自愿和非自愿（强制执行）Context-Switches，
由于历史原因，使用了“FAT”块计算的计算机，由于非GIL Numpy / C / FORTRAN代码，因此受到非自愿CtxSwitched案件的干扰，如下所示
（len(str([np.math.factorial(2**f) for f in range(20)][-1]))）
但
通过使用主要任何其他PID数字，
这种琐碎的监控机制可以用于任何其他目的：
