Hi, I am trying to come up with a new kernel scheduler for experminental purposes. The new strategy will schedule a be as follows: If there are three users A,B,C then each will get 33 percent of the CPU. If A has 5 processes then they will share A's 33%, and will be scheduled in the traditional way. If B has only one process then it will get the entire 33% assigned to B and so on... Can anyone please suggest any ideas. I am currently calculating the number of different users in the runqeue and am trying to come up with an accurate formulae. I have a question. If there are N different users in the run-queue, and a user A has P processes. Then how can I calculate what percentage P should get. Using that value I will need to change the value of the weight in the goodness function of sched.c right? _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
