2008-12-09user namespaces: document CFS behaviorSerge E. Hallyn
Documented the currently bogus state of support for CFS user groups with user namespaces. In particular, all users in a user namespace should be children of the user which created the user namespace. This is yet to be implemented. Signed-off-by: Serge E. Hallyn <serue@us.ibm.com> Acked-by: Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Serge E.

2008-09-23CFS scheduler: documentation about scheduling policiesMartin Steigerwald
The documentation about the CFS scheduler is scarse when it comes to scheduling policies. This patch adds a chapter about the scheduling policies it supports. Peter Zijlstra provided most of the information for it in http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=122210038326356&w=2 Signed-off-by: Martin Steigerwald <ms@teamix.de> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-02-07Documentation: create new scheduler/ subdirectoryJ. Bruce Fields
The top-level Documentation/ directory is unmanageably large, so we should take any obvious opportunities to move stuff into subdirectories. These sched-*.txt files seem an obvious easy case.
