Subject[RFC/RFT PATCH] sched: automated per tty task groups
From
Date
Greetings,

Comments, suggestions etc highly welcome.

This patch implements an idea from Linus, to automatically create task groups
per tty, to improve desktop interactivity under hefty load such as kbuild. The
feature is enabled from boot by default, The default setting can be changed via
the boot option ttysched=0, and can be can be turned on or off on the fly via
echo [01] > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_tty_sched_enabled.

A 100% hog overhead measurement proggy pinned to the same CPU as a make -j10
