Of course, that was just a suggestion, and we are mostly interested in having this in Xen, not about how the Linux implementation works. Actually, I do believe that, if the thing is popular on Linux, and if there are user-level (or whatever-level) tools that interact with it, a common (or at least a compatible and easy to adapt) interface would be a great plus (for us!), but really, don't go too much deep with that. What I really meant was that, if it were me doing this, I'd at least have a look, with the aim of figuring out how actually popular, useful and used this is in the Linux world. If it's used a lot, then we can see about being compatible with it. If it's just some forgotten piece of code inside the kernel, then we can implement our own variant of it, without caring of Linux's interface and user space tools! > Once I'm comfortable with that and xen's credit_scheduler, for > starting, I'll come up with a design doc and share with you all.=20 > Sure, that would be great. > I'll keep reporting the progress of the work and ask related doubts in > this thread. > Or, feel free to use this thread for updates, but open new ones for specific questions or issues.
