[PATCH v7 6/9] sched/fair: Add sched group latency support

Vincent Guittot
2022-10-28T09:35:48Z

Task can set its latency priority with sched_setattr(), which is then used
to set the latency offset of its sched_enity, but sched group entities
still have the default latency offset value.

Add a latency.nice field in cpu cgroup controller to set the latency
priority of the group similarly to sched_setattr(). The latency priority
is then used to set the offset of the sched_entities of the group.
