Quote of the week
[Posted July 7, 2004 by corbet]
The stuff that's gone around looks minor. It's not like they're teaching
sched.c to play cpu tetris for gang scheduling or Kalman filtering
profiling feedback to stripe tasks using different cpu resources across
SMT siblings or playing graph games to meet RT deadlines, so it doesn't
look like very much at all is going on to me.
It's pretty obvious why everyone and their brother is grinding out
purported scheduler rewrites: the code is self-contained, however,
nothing interesting is coming of all this. Never been for have so many
patches been written against the same file, accomplishing so little.
-- William Lee Irwin would like to see more
ambitious scheduler patches.
