to select a KSE with a slice of 0 we will update its slice and insert it onto the next queue. - Pass the KSE instead of the ksegrp into sched_slice(). This more accurately reflects the behavior of the code. Slices are granted to kses. - Add a function kseq_nice_min() which finds the smallest nice value assigned to the kseg of any KSE on the queue. - Rewrite the logic in sched_slice(). Add a large comment describing the new slice selection scheme. To summarize, slices are assigned based on the nice value. Priorities are still calculated based on the nice and interactivity of a process. Slice sizes of 0 may be granted for KSEs whos nice is 20 or futher away from the lowest nice on the run queue. Other nice values are scaled across the range [min, min+20]. This fixes ULEs bad behavior with positively niced processes.
