jlelli / sched-deadline-archive

An implementation of the popular Earliest Deadline First (EDF) scheduling algorithm or the Linux kernel. It is still experimental code, and it is still continuously being improved, but it already is a fully-working solution for supporting typical real-time applications in GNU/Linux environments.

Documentation uses wrong percentage of bandwdith #6

Closed jtdaugherty closed 11 years ago

Hi,

The documentation states that a runtime of 500000 usec and a period of 1000000 usec yields a bandwidth limit of 5%:

https://github.com/jlelli/sched-deadline/blob/mainline-dl/Documentation/scheduler/sched-deadline.txt#L140

But I'm pretty sure that equals 50%, not 5%. 5% would be 50000 usec runtime, wouldn't it?

You were right. But, the bandwidth admission control is totally changed now :). Check the documentation on sched-dl-V7 branch. Thanks for your post, though.

Okay. I'm using an older version and it was wrong in my docs, so I followed the mistake here. :) Thanks!
