Description Luděk Janča 2023-01-30 07:01:25 CET 
Description of problem:
iotop returning `CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT not enabled in kernel, cannot determine SWAPIN and IO %`

Reason of problem is mentioned here:
https://www.mankier.com/8/iotop-c:
"Starting with Linux kernel 5.14.x task_delayacct is configurable at runtime and set to off by default. This setting can be changed in interactive mode by the Ctrl-T shortcut. In batch mode a warning is printed when the setting is OFF."

We don't have iotop-c in Mageia 8, it was only recently imported in Cauldron (Mageia 9).

I don't know whether having iotop-c backported to Mageia 8, would be enough to solve your issue.

Assigning to our iotop-c maintainer for his opinion.

To whom it may consern, feel free to backport iotop-c from Cauldron. Reassigning to bugsquad.
