This is to briefly announce the availability of the desktop interactivity
focused BFS CPU scheduler v0.318 for the new stable linux 2.6.34 kernel. This
version is also available for 2.6.32 and 2.6.31.
http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/bfs/
Apart from resyncing with the new kernel, the changes in this version since
the last announced version 0.316 are minor only:
Making the rise in rr_interval with increasing CPUs smaller, for lower
latencies on multicore/smp machines. Any decrease in throughput with this
change was below the margin of noise in my basic testing, and if there was a
drop in throughput it would be worth it for latency reasons.
Minor fixes to prevent a warning when sched debug is enabled.
Enjoy
