      sched: reintroduce SMP tunings again · 19978ca6
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      Yanmin Zhang reported an aim7 regression and bisected it down to:

 |  commit 38ad464d
 |  Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
 |  Date:   Mon Oct 15 17:00:02 2007 +0200
 |
 |     sched: uniform tunings
 |
 |     use the same defaults on both UP and SMP.

fix this by reintroducing similar SMP tunings again. This resolves
the regression.

(also update the comments to match the ilog2(nr_cpus) tuning effect)

      sched: restore deterministic CPU accounting on powerpc · fa13a5a1
      Paul Mackerras authored 
      Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the
deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been
broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in
timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times().

This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times
that updates utime and stime into a separate function called
account_process_tick.  If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined,
there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that
simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before.  If
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to
implement account_process_tick.

This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390
timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a
suitable account_process_tick().

account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument.
Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.

      sched: fix delay accounting regression · 9a41785c
      Balbir Singh authored 
      Fix the delay accounting regression introduced by commit
75d4ef16. rq no longer has sched_info
data associated with it. task_struct sched_info structure is used by delay
accounting to provide back statistics to user space.

also remove direct use of sched_clock() (which is not a valid thing to
do anymore) and use rq->clock instead.

      sched: reintroduce the sched_min_granularity tunable · b2be5e96
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      we lost the sched_min_granularity tunable to a clever optimization
that uses the sched_latency/min_granularity ratio - but the ratio
is quite unintuitive to users and can also crash the kernel if the
ratio is set to 0. So reintroduce the min_granularity tunable,
while keeping the ratio maintained internally.

no functionality changed.

      sched: fix vslice · 10b77724
      Peter Zijlstra authored 
      vslice was missing a factor NICE_0_LOAD, as weight is in
weight*NICE_0_LOAD units.

the effect of this bug was larger initial slices and
thus latency-noisier forks.
