Subject: sched/rt: Add a tuning knob to allow changing SCHED_RR timeslice
X-Git-Tag: MMI-PSA29.97-13-9~15046^2~5
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ce0dbbbb30aee6a835511d5be446462388ba9eee;p=GitHub%2FMotorolaMobilityLLC%2Fkernel-slsi.git

sched/rt: Add a tuning knob to allow changing SCHED_RR timeslice

Add a /proc/sys/kernel scheduler knob named
sched_rr_timeslice_ms that allows global changing of the
SCHED_RR timeslice value. User visable value is in milliseconds
but is stored as jiffies.  Setting to 0 (zero) resets to the
default (currently 100ms).
