Re: [PATCH 2.6.21] Return available first timeslice to the creator, not parent

Vitaly Mayatskikh skrev:

Short-living process returns its timeslice to the parent, this
affects process that creates a lot of such short-living threads,
because its not a parent for new threads.

I don't see the point of sending patches for old Linux versions such as 2.6.21, unless it's something applicable to the -stable tree.

Do recent kernels with CFS have the same problem?

Patch fixes this issue and
doesn't break kabi as does the patch from reporter:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/4/7/21

There's no kabi.
