The HyperNews Linux KHG Discussion Pages . ... Keywords: scheduler overhead . ... From: Jasleen Kaur < jks@cs.utexas.edu > . Hi, I am implementing a different scheduling policy in the scheduler of Linux 2.0.0. I need to measure the time taken for choosing the next task to be scheduled, i.e., the actual time spent in the schedule() function, without the actual context switch having taken place. Since I clear interrupts in schedule(), how do I measure the time? ... Thanks, Jasleen Kaur . ...
