I applied for Summer of Cod, but did not go well :) I'm still intentioned in carrying the work on as a personal project starting in the next few weeks though. > I'm going to look at implementing an EDF scheduler, with the rt- patch series, > ands finally try to measure the performance and latency compared to other > schedulers (O(1) and CFS) Are you going to implement it as a CFS's scheduling class? I'm curious about any sort of overhead that could be encountered in such a case. I would also be curious to benchmark the rt-groups patchest (that IIRC should allow the possibily to schedule by using EDF and control groups).
