Subject: [RFC PATCH v7 0/3] scheduler: Add scheduler overview
Date: Fri, 5 Jun 2020 12:29:03 +0300 [thread overview]

This patch series updates the scheduler documentation to add more topics
wrt to scheduler overview. New sections are added to provide a brief
overview of the kernel structs used by the scheduler, scheduler invocation,
context switch and Capacity Aware Scheduling. Previous version of
the patch was reviewed at:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200527084421.4673-1-John.Mathew@unikie.com/
version 7:
-Fix overview description
-Removed rst headers
-Removed kernel-doc for struct rq and meged it as struct
member comments
version 6:
-Fix typos.
version 5:
-Fix description error on CAS
version 4:
-Added section on Capacity-Aware Scheduling
-Reworded CFS recently added features.
-Removed vruntime description from scheduler structs
-Added description of idle and stopper sched classses
version 3:
-Fix spelling, spacing and typo errors.
version 2:
- Remove :c:func: directive as it was redundant
- Limit document width (line symbol count) to 75
- Replace dot file with ASCII art
- Describe prepare_task_switch(), ASID use,
kernel/user transtion, MIPS FPU affinity correctly
- Add missing references to files
