First of all, thanx Con for this nice piece of code. I've been trying in the last few days to backport this new scheduler to a 2.6.18 kernel. After a lot of efforts I have finally been able to compile and run a RSDL patched 2.6.18.8 kernel on a x86_64 arch and actually my test PC booted 2-3 seconds faster with it compared to a vanilla 2.6.18.8 kernel. This patch includes a few other patches from 2.6.19+ kernel: PATCH 1: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.20.y.git;a=co mmit;h=ece8a684c75df215320b4155944979e3f78c5c93 PATCH 2: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.20.y.git;a=co mmit;h=08c183f31bdbb709f177f6d3110d5f288ea33933 PATCH 3: The patch to get you from 0.26 to 0.28: http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/staircase-deadline/2.6.20/sched-rsdl-0.26- 0.28.patch There might also be other small pieces of code comming from a 2.6.19+ kernel. Due to the project I'm currently working on, this will, in the next few weeks, help me out comparing heavy loads on a Debian Sarge/Etch 32/64 platform. Suggestions on benchmark tools would greatly be appreciated. Duno if this will be helpfull for anybody but I tought it would be nice to give it back to the lkml community. - vin
