How to linux scheduling process with weight value












0















I am reading "Linux Kernel Development" and i have some point i have not understand about weight value of process. In linux kernel, each process has a nice value, and than mapping nice value to weight.




  • first: i think weight is "the proportion of processor time". it mean process'runtime allocated is: its weight/(total weight of all process)* (processor time). if result of above formula is 10%, but actual the runtime of process lower than 10%, it is priority. Right?

  • second (if fisrt is true): i confused about how cfs check it. is cfs check periodly (example 1 milisecond) and cfs update runtime of process, compare proportion actual runtime/process'runtime allocated than choose min and run it ? by the way, can you enum some function used. Thank you
