Xen devel - Sep 2009 - Consideration of cpu-processing in domain-0 by credit scheduler

Hi,

I have come across many papers related to cpu sharing (and also specifying
cpu limits) between guest domains taking into account the cpu-processing in
domain-0 for the corresponding guest domains. But in most of such papers
SEDF scheduler or its variation was being used . No work on ''credit
scheduler'' was found in this regard. Is there already some work done(or
even
going on) that I have missed or is there something in credit scheduler which
by default takes into consideration the cpu-processing in the domain-0 when
we specify weights and cap of different guest domains?

Thanks
Mathew

At the moment, there is no consideration of work done in dom0 on
behalf of a guest domain, and no work planned as of yet.  Long-term,
the plan is to use stub domains, and potentially have some kind of
"co-scheduling", where work done in the stub domain is counted as part
of the guest VM.  That still doesn''t account for work done in back-end
drivers, of course.
