OK I read them and it seems that in order to change the scheduler, I have to write a C code and call the sched_set* functions. Please correct that if I am wrong.

So in order to use my custom scheduler, I have to do the following steps.

1- Write my  code using the APIs and save that in kernel/sched_custom.c
2- Invoke sched_custom.c in kernel/sched.c
3- Recompile the kernel source
4- Reboot using the new kernel
5- write a C code and call sched_setschedule() to use my scheduler.

Is that all? Your reply is appreciated.

Mahmood
