In my schedulers I generalize background to "soft cpu rate caps" with

both soft and hard cpu rate caps to the standard scheduler but I'm
sitting on them until things settle down a bit.
I look forward to seeing them. Any chance of a preview?
I'll post them as a "request for comment" tomorrow. I'm still undecided
about the best user space interface for using them. At the moment, I
have mechanisms to set them via /proc which is very handy for testing
but not necessarily the best interface for general use. Other options
are via rlimits or a syscall.
There'll be a delay in this posting as I've discovered uses of MAX_PRIO
(in 2.7.17-rc4-mm3) that would be broken by my current patches. I'll
fix that problem and hopefully post the patches in the near future.
Sorry
Peter
