[ANNOUNCE][RFC] PlugSched-3.0 meets CKRM-E17

From: Peter Williams
Date: Tue Feb 08 2005 - 21:32:37 EST


A patch of PlugSched-3.0 against a 2.6.10 kernel with ckrm-e17.2610.patch and cpu.ckrm-e17.v10.patch already applied is available for download from:

<http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cpuse/plugsched-3.0%2Bckrm-E17-for-2.6.10.patch?download>

and a patchset and series file are available in at gzipped tarball at:

<http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cpuse/plugsched-3.0%2Bckrm-E17-for-2.6.10.patchset.tar.gz?download>

The model adopted in merging PlugSched with CKRM was to apply the CKRM mechanisms as an optional adjunct to each of the schedulers (ingosched, staircase, spa_no_frills and zaphod) which can be selected at boot time by adding "cpusched=<scheduler name>" to the boot command line. If the CKRM scheduler is included in the build then it can be selected/deselected in the usual ways.

PlugSched's version number has been bumped to 3.0 as its interface has been modified to increase the ability to share code between schedulers as well as integrate with CKRM.

A stand alone version of PlugSched-3.0 will be available in a few days.
