Subject: [GIT PULL] scheduler changes for v5.5
Date: Mon, 25 Nov 2019 13:59:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191125125944.GA22218@gmail.com> (raw)

Linus,

Please pull the latest sched-core-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git sched-core-for-linus

   # HEAD: de881a341c4143650fa50ce95cf450a5c94faa9f Merge branch 'sched/rt' into sched/core, to pick up commit

The biggest changes in this cycle were:

 - Make kcpustat vtime aware (Frederic Weisbecker)

 - Rework the CFS load_balance() logic (Vincent Guittot)

 - Misc cleanups, smaller enhancements, fixes.

The load-balancing rework is the most intrusive change: it replaces the 
old heuristics that have become less meaningful after the introduction of 
the PELT metrics, with a grounds-up load-balancing algorithm.

As such it's not really an iterative series, but replaces the old 
load-balancing logic with the new one. We hope there are no performance 
regressions left - but statistically it's highly probable that there *is* 
going to be some workload that is hurting from these chnages. If so then 
we'd prefer to have a look at that workload and fix its scheduling, 
instead of reverting the changes.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
