Subject: Re: [POC][RFC][PATCH] sched: Extended Scheduler Time Slice

This is a user interface, ofcourse I'm worried about abuse. That's the
first thing you *should* think about.

Userspace is out to get you -- must assume hostile.

Notably, we were talking usec latencies in the Chrome thread, you're
adding 1000 usec latencies here (in the best case, delaying scheduling
until the next tick, 10000usec for the HZ=100 folks). This is quite
'unfortunate'.

On my very aged IVB-EP I can get 50us scheduling latencies on a good
day, on my brand spanking new SPR I can get 20us (more faster more
better etc..).

Ideally we don't allow userspace to extend much (if any) beyond the
granularity already imposed by the kernel's preempt/IRQ-disable regions.
Sadly we don't have a self-measure of that around.

So I had a poke at all this and ended up with the below. I still utterly
detest all this, but it appears to actually work -- although I don't
much see the improvement, the numbers are somewhat unstable. (I say it
works because I see the 'yield -- made it' trace_printk when I do it
right and the 'timeout -- force resched' when I do it 'wrong'.

This thing works across the board and gives userspace 50usec, equal to
what the kernel already imposes on (on the IVB).

I simply took a bit from the existing flags field, and userspace can use
BTR to test if the kernel cleared it -- in which case it needs yield
(and not any other syscall).

Additinally doing a syscall with the bit set will SIGSEGV (when
DEBUG_RSEQ).
