scx_rlfifo is provided as a simple example to show how to use scx_rustland_core and it's not supposed to be used in a real production environment. To prevent performance bug reports print an explicit warning when it's started to clarify the goal of this scheduler. Signed-off-by: Andrea Righi <andrea.righi@canonical.com> |

scx_rlfifo
This is a single user-defined scheduler used within sched_ext, which is a Linux kernel feature which enables implementing kernel thread schedulers in BPF and dynamically loading them. Read more about sched_ext.
Overview
scx_rlfifo is a simple FIFO scheduler runs in user-space, based on the scx_rustland_core framework.
Typical Use Case
This scheduler is provided as a simple template that can be used as a baseline to test more complex scheduling policies.
Production Ready?
Definitely not. Using this scheduler in a production environment is not recommended, unless there are specific requirements that necessitate a basic FIFO scheduling approach. Even then, it's still recommended to use the kernel's SCHED_FIFO real-time class.
