From ab84d31e15502fb626169ba2663381e34bf965b2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Turner Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2011 09:43:28 -0700 Subject: sched: Introduce primitives to account for CFS bandwidth tracking In this patch we introduce the notion of CFS bandwidth, partitioned into globally unassigned bandwidth, and locally claimed bandwidth. - The global bandwidth is per task_group, it represents a pool of unclaimed bandwidth that cfs_rqs can allocate from. - The local bandwidth is tracked per-cfs_rq, this represents allotments from the global pool bandwidth assigned to a specific cpu. Bandwidth is managed via cgroupfs, adding two new interfaces to the cpu subsystem: - cpu.cfs_period_us : the bandwidth period in usecs - cpu.cfs_quota_us : the cpu bandwidth (in usecs) that this tg will be allowed to consume over period above.
