Message-ID: <20071015141723.GA29486@elte.hu>

Subject: [git pull] scheduler updates for v2.6.24
Linus, please pull the latest scheduler git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mingo/linux-2.6-sched.git
It contains lots of scheduler updates from lots of people - hopefully
the last big one for quite some time. Most of the focus was on
performance (both micro-performance and scalability/balancing), but
there's the fair-scheduling feature now Kconfig selectable too. Find the
shortlog below.
Code that is touched outside of the scheduler: the KVM bits were acked
by Avi, the net/unix change is trivial and only affects sync wakeups,
ditto the fs/pipe.c changes - but i can push those separately if it
needs an ack from David first.
ABI/API changes:
- new CONFIG_FAIR_USER_SCHED and /sys/kernel/uids/ + uevent API.
- /proc/stat and /proc/<pid>/stat changes for guest-CPU usage [KVM]
- /proc/sched_debug formats changed/enhanced
Testing status: the changes are chronological and all the
interactivity-impacting changes are near the head of the queue and most
of them were done weeks ago, and were thus part of the CFS-v22 backport
series - which was tested by many people. There are no known regressions
at the moment. It's all fully bisectable.
Thanks,
Ingo
