Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: - Remove the unused per rq load array and all its infrastructure, by Dietmar Eggemann. - Add utilization clamping support by Patrick Bellasi. This is a refinement of the energy aware scheduling framework with support for boosting of interactive and capping of background workloads: to make sure critical GUI threads get maximum frequency ASAP, and to make sure background processing doesn't unnecessarily move to cpufreq governor to higher frequencies and less energy efficient CPU modes. - Add the bare minimum of tracepoints required for LISA EAS regression testing, by Qais Yousef - which allows automated testing of various power management features, including energy aware scheduling. - Restructure the former tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() facility that the -rt kernel used to modify the scheduler's CPU affinity logic such as migrate_disable() - introduce the task->cpus_ptr value instead of taking the address of &task->cpus_allowed directly - by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior. - Misc optimizations, fixes, cleanups and small enhancements - see the Git log for details. * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (33 commits) sched/uclamp: Add uclamp support to energy_compute() sched/uclamp: Add uclamp_util_with() sched/cpufreq, sched/uclamp: Add clamps for FAIR and RT tasks sched/uclamp: Set default clamps for RT tasks sched/uclamp: Reset uclamp values on RESET_ON_FORK sched/uclamp: Extend sched_setattr() to support utilization clamping sched/core: Allow sched_setattr() to use the current policy sched/uclamp: Add system default clamps sched/uclamp: Enforce last task's UCLAMP_MAX sched/uclamp: Add bucket local max tracking sched/uclamp: Add CPU's clamp buckets refcounting sched/fair: Rename weighted_cpuload() to cpu_runnable_load() sched/debug: Export the newly added tracepoints sched/debug: Add sched_overutilized tracepoint sched/debug: Add new tracepoint to track PELT at se level sched/debug: Add new tracepoints to track PELT at rq level sched/debug: Add a new sched_trace_*() helper functions sched/autogroup: Make autogroup_path() always available sched/wait: Deduplicate code with do-while sched/topology: Remove unused 'sd' parameter from arch_scale_cpu_capacity() ...
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
