- Allow user adjustable min and max time slices (suggested by hiten). - Change the SLP_RUN_MAX to 100ms from 2 seconds so that we learn whether a process is interactive or not much more quickly. - Place a process on the current run queue if it is interactive or if it is running at an interrupt thread priority due to priority prop. - Use the 'current' timeshare queue for interrupt threads, realtime threads, and idle threads that are running at higher priority due to priority prop. This fixes problems where priorities would have been elevated but we would not check the timeshare run queue until other lower priority tasks were no longer runnable. - Keep an array of loads indexed by the priority class as well as a global load. - Keep an bucket of nice values with a count of the number of kses currently runnable with that nice value. - Keep track of the minimum nice value of any running thread. - Remove the unused short term sleep accounting. I was attempting to use this for load balancing but it didn't work out. - Define a kseq_print() for use with debugging. - Add KTR debugging at useful places so we can easily debug slice and priority assignment. - Decouple the runq assignment from the kseq assignment. kseq_add now keeps track of statistics. This is done so that the nice and load is still tracked for the currently running process. Previously if a niced process was added while a non nice process was running the niced process would still get a slice since it was not aware of the unnice process. - Make adjustments for the sched api changes.
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
