[PATCH v4 3/8] sched: Allow sched_{get,set}attr to change latency_nice of the task
From: Vincent Guittot
Date: Fri Sep 16 2022 - 04:04:24 EST
From: Parth Shah <parth@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Introduce the latency_nice attribute to sched_attr and provide a
mechanism to change the value with the use of sched_setattr/sched_getattr
syscall.
Also add new flag "SCHED_FLAG_LATENCY_NICE" to hint the change in
latency_nice of the task on every sched_setattr syscall.
Signed-off-by: Parth Shah <parth@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[rebase and add a dedicated __setscheduler_latency ]
