Unfortunately, most system\ntools that work with these numbers that are exported in /proc/diskstats\nincluding iostat read these numbers into unsigned longs. This works fine\non 32b platforms and when the number of IO transactions are small on 64b\nplatforms. However, when the numbers wrap on 64b platforms \u0026 you read the\nnumbers into unsigned longs, and compare the numbers to previous readings,\nthen you get an unsigned representation of a negative number. This looks\nlike a very large 64b number \u0026 gives you bizarre readouts in iostat:\n\nilc4: Device: rrqm/s wrqm/s r/s w/s rsec/s wsec/s rkB/s wkB/s avgrq-sz avgqu-sz await svctm %util\nilc4: sda 5.50 0.00 143.96 0.00 307496983987862656.00 0.00 153748491993931328.00 0.00 2136028725038430.00 7.94 55.12 5.59 80.42\n\nThough fixing iostat in user space is possible, and a quick survey\nindicates that several other similar tools also use unsigned longs when\nprocessing /proc/diskstats.
