cd79007634 sched: more robust sd-sysctl entry freeing
It occurred to me this morning that the procname field was dynamically
allocated and needed to be freed.  I started to put in break statements
when allocation failed but it was approaching 50% error handling code.

I came up with this alternative of looping while entry->mode is set and
checking proc_handler instead of ->table.  Alternatively, the string
version of the domain name and cpu number could be stored the structs.

I verified by compiling CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB and checking the allocation
counts after taking a cpuset exclusive and back.

607717a65d cpuset: remove sched domain hooks from cpusets
Remove the cpuset hooks that defined sched domains depending on the setting
of the 'cpu_exclusive' flag.

The cpu_exclusive flag can only be set on a child if it is set on the
parent.

This made that flag painfully unsuitable for use as a flag defining a
partitioning of a system.

It was entirely unobvious to a cpuset user what partitioning of sched
domains they would be causing when they set that one cpu_exclusive bit on
one cpuset, because it depended on what CPUs were in the remainder of that
cpusets siblings and child cpusets, after subtracting out other
cpu_exclusive cpusets.

Furthermore, there was no way on production systems to query the
result.

Using the cpu_exclusive flag for this was simply wrong from the get go.

Fortunately, it was sufficiently borked that so far as I know, almost no
successful use has been made of this.  One real time group did use it to
affectively isolate CPUs from any load balancing efforts.  They are willing
to adapt to alternative mechanisms for this, such as someway to manipulate
the list of isolated CPUs on a running system.  They can do without this
present cpu_exclusive based mechanism while we develop an alternative.

There is a real risk, to the best of my understanding, of users
accidentally setting up a partitioned scheduler domains, inhibiting desired
load balancing across all their CPUs, due to the nonobvious (from the
cpuset perspective) side affects of the cpu_exclusive flag.

Furthermore, since there was no way on a running system to see what one was
doing with sched domains, this change will be invisible to any using code.
Unless they have real insight to the scheduler load balancing choices, they
will be unable to detect that this change has been made in the kernel's
behaviour.

Initial discussion on lkml of this patch has generated much comment.  My
(probably controversial) take on that discussion is that it has reached a
rough concensus that the current cpuset cpu_exclusive mechanism for
defining sched domains is borked.  There is no concensus on the
replacement.  But since we can remove this mechanism, and since its
continued presence risks causing unwanted partitioning of the schedulers
load balancing, we should remove it while we can, as we proceed to work the
replacement scheduler domain mechanisms.

9c63d9c021 sched: sync wakeups preempt too
make sure sync wakeups preempt too - the scheduler will not
overschedule as we've got various throttles against that.

94886b84b1 sched: guest CPU accounting: maintain stats in account_system_time()
modify account_system_time() to add cputime to cpustat->guest if we are
running a VCPU. We add this cputime to cpustat->user instead of
cpustat->system because this part of KVM code is in fact user code
although it is executed in the kernel. We duplicate VCPU time between
guest and user to allow an unmodified "top(1)" to display correct value.
A modified "top(1)" is able to display good cpu user time and cpu guest
time by subtracting cpu guest time from cpu user time. Update "gtime" in
task_struct accordingly.

[1] according to the following link, it's not compliant with SUSv3
(not sure though, what is the reference for us :-)
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/3/7/656

[2] the interval is dynamic and can be depicted as follows "should a
task be one of the runnable tasks at this particular moment, it would
expect to run for this interval of time before being re-scheduled by the
scheduler tick".
(i.e. it's more precise if a task is runnable at the moment)

yeah, this seems to require task_rq_lock/unlock() but this is not a hot
path.

results:

(SCHED_FIFO)

dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt -f 10 ./rr_interval 
time_slice: 0 : 0

(SCHED_RR)

dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ sudo chrt 10 ./rr_interval

(SCHED_NORMAL)

dimm@earth:~/storage/prog$ ./rr_interval 
time_slice: 0 : 19996960

(SCHED_NORMAL + a cpu_hog of similar 'weight' on the same CPU --- so should be a half of the previous result)

2d72376b3a sched: clean up schedstats, cnt -> count
rename all 'cnt' fields and variables to the less yucky 'count' name.

yuckage noticed by Andrew Morton.

no change in code, other than the /proc/sched_debug bkl_count string got
a bit larger:

2ddbf95250 sched: clean up sched_fork()
The adjusting sched_class is a missing part of the already existing "do
not leak PI boosting priority to the child" at the sched_fork(). This
patch moves the adjusting sched_class from wake_up_new_task() to
sched_fork().

this also shrinks the code a bit:

24e377a832 sched: add fair-user scheduler
Enable user-id based fair group scheduling. This is useful for anyone
who wants to test the group scheduler w/o having to enable
CONFIG_CGROUPS.

A separate scheduling group (i.e struct task_grp) is automatically created for 
every new user added to the system. Upon uid change for a task, it is made to 
move to the corresponding scheduling group.

A /proc tunable (/proc/root_user_share) is also provided to tune root
user's quota of cpu bandwidth.

container-based fair scheduling), this patch renames several functions
and makes them independent of whether they are being used for container

Also fix a problem reported by KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki (wrt allocating
less-sized array for tg->cfs_rq[] and tf->se[]).
