Subject: PM QoS: Interface design question
Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2011 15:30:10 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110222062944.GA5125@verge.net.au> (raw)

Hi,

I am curious about an aspect of the design of PM QoS.

While working with the devices provided to configure PM QoS it struck me
that this is a rather unusual interface - holding a file descriptor to a
device open so long as configuration parameters apply.  I understand that
this is a mechanism to apply parameters on a per-task basis.  But I am
wondering if any consideration was given to using cgroups, which seem to me
to be designed specifically for applying QoS parameters on a per-task
basis.
