The Linux-SRT Integrated Multimedia Operating System: Bringing QoS To The Desktop Outline Introduction Background Scheduler Implementation Evaluation Conclusion Introduction Soft real-time (SRT) requirement for applications on the PC Drawback of existing time-sharing designs – can’t predictably provide a specific proportion of system resources CPU scheduling alone isn’t enough – contention for access to other resource can render CPU reservation worthless Introduction Main idea Close integration between system components is necessary Scheduling policies should be respected throughout the system Background Standard Linux scheduling CPU scheduling Dynamic Static Disk scheduling Provide no way for users to influence the priority of disk requests Scheduler Implementation Linux-SRT features Standard Linux For time-sharing processes: SCHED_OTHER For RT processes: SCHED_RR, SCHED_FIFO Linux-SRT adds SCHED_QOS SCHED_PAUSE SCHED_IDLE Scheduler Implementation Reserve – the unit of resource allocation, and encapsulates scheduling parameters Scheduler Implementation CPU scheduling Precedence SCHED_QOS SCHED_RR SCHED_FIFO SCHED_OTHER SCHED_IDLE SCHED_PAUSE Fallback policy – when a task’s resource usage exceeds its limit, it is scheduled according to a fallback policy Sample scheduling policies Scheduler Implementation Disk scheduling The same as the CPU scheduling Disk requests are tagged with PIDs Multiple device support Each scheduled device has its own list of reserves Schedulers of devices are responsible for their own accounting, scheduling and policing Evaluation CPU scheduler effectiveness Evaluation Disk scheduler effectiveness Conclusion Existing applications can benefit from QoS without being modified Support QoS for multiple devices Future work Adaptively Support multi-processor system and network devices * * Speaker: Yan-Pai Chen Stephen Childs and David Ingram University of Cambridge * * * 多媒體及game為目前PC的core tasks。而這些tasks需要SRT。 SRT: predictable re
