Subject: [PATCH 1/3] Added runqueue clock normalized with cpufreq
This is a request for comments on additions to sched deadline v3 patches.
Deadline scheduler is the first scheduler (I think) we introduce in Linux that
specifies the runtime in time and not only as a weight or a relation.
I have introduced a normalized runtime clock dependent on the CPU frequency.
This is used, in [PATCH 2/3], to calculate the deadline thread's runtime
so that approximately the same number of cycles are giving to the thread
independent of the CPU frequency.
I suggest that this is important for users of hard reservation based schedulers
that the intended amount of work can be accomplished independent of the CPU frequency.
The usage of CPU frequency scaling is important on mobile devices and hence
the combination of deadline scheduler and cpufreq should be solved.
This patch series applies on a backported sched deadline v3 to a 2.6.34 kernel.
That backport can be made available if anyone is interested. It also runs on
my dual core ARM system.
So before I do this for the linux tip I would welcome a discussion about if this
is a good idea and also suggestions on how to improve this.
This first patch introduce the normalized runtime clock, this could be made
lockless instead if requested.
/Harald
