I'm pleased to announce the v24.1 CFS backport patches.
It is a full backport of the latest & greatest upstream scheduler code to v2.6.23.12, v2.6.22.15 and v2.6.21.7. (Note: the upstream 2.6.24-rc5 and soon-to-be-released v2.6.24-rc6 kernels already include the v24.1 CFS code.)
The CFS patches can be downloaded from the usual place:
http://people.redhat.com/mingo/cfs-scheduler/
No major user-visible changes were done since v24, only a number of bugfixes. The delta since v24 is:
8 files changed, 339 insertions(+), 484 deletions(-)
if you'd like to make sure that the v2.6.24 kernel's scheduler handles your workloads just fine, or if you just want to try the latest then you can try one of these backport kernels. (or try the latest 2.6.24-rc kernel)
As usual, any sort of feedback, bugreport, fix and suggestion is more than welcome!
Ingo
