2007-10-15sched: prevent wakeup over-schedulingMike Galbraith3-4/+15
Prevent wakeup over-scheduling. Once a task has been preempted by a task of the same or lower priority, it becomes ineligible for repeated preemption by same until it has been ticked, or slept. Instead, the task is marked for preemption at the next tick. Tasks of higher priority still preempt immediately.

2007-10-15sched: group scheduling, sysfs tunablesDhaval Giani6-79/+309
Add tunables in sysfs to modify a user's cpu share. A directory is created in sysfs for each new user in the system. /sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_share Reading this file returns the cpu shares granted for the user. Writing into this file modifies the cpu share for the user. Only an administrator is allowed to modify a user's cpu share.

[1] according to the following link, it's not compliant with SUSv3 (not sure though, what is the reference for us :-) http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/3/7/656 [2] the interval is dynamic and can be depicted as follows "should a task be one of the runnable tasks at this particular moment, it would expect to run for this interval of time before being re-scheduled by the scheduler tick". (i.e. it's more precise if a task is runnable at the moment) yeah, this seems to require task_rq_lock/unlock() but this is not a hot path. results: (SCHED_FIFO) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt -f 10 ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 0 (SCHED_RR) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt 10 ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 99984800 (SCHED_NORMAL) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 19996960 (SCHED_NORMAL + a cpu_hog of similar 'weight' on the same CPU --- so should be a half of the previous result) dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ taskset 1 ./rr_interval time_slice: 0 : 9998480 Signed-off-by: Dmitry Adamushko <dmitry.adamushko@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2007-10-15sched: fix __pick_next_entity()Dmitry Adamushko1-2/+5
The thing is that __pick_next_entity() must never be called when first_fair(cfs_rq) == NULL. It wouldn't be a problem, should 'run_node' be the very first field of 'struct sched_entity' (and it's the second). The 'nr_running != 0' check is _not_ enough, due to the fact that 'current' is not within the tree. Generic paths are ok (e.g. schedule() as put_prev_task() is called previously)... I'm more worried about e.g. migration_call() -> CPU_DEAD_FROZEN -> migrate_dead_tasks()... if 'current' == rq->idle, no problems.. if it's one of the SCHED_NORMAL tasks (or imagine, some other use-cases in the future -- i.e. we should not make outer world dependent on internal details of sched_fair class) -- it may be "Houston, we've got a problem" case. it's +16 bytes to the ".text". Another variant is to make 'run_node' the first data member of 'struct sched_entity' but an additional check (se ! = NULL) is still needed in pick_next_entity().

There is a possibility that because of task of a group moving from one cpu to another, it may gain more cpu time that desired. See http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=119073197730334 for details. This is an attempt to fix that problem. Basically it simulates dequeue of higher level entities as if they are going to sleep.
