[Devel] [PATCH vz10 v2 0/2] Clean up vCPU handling code

[Dmitry Sepp]

The idea behind the change is to transition from the existing spatial
vCPU handling approach that introduces costly modification to the
scheduling logic to ensure the requested CPU count is obeyed (10%+
performance drop in some tests, see below) to temporal isolation that can be
provided by the cgroup2 cpu.max.

Reference test results:

1. Clean setup, no vCPU related modifications:
~/at_process_ctxswitch_pipe -w -p 2 -t 15
rate_total: 856509.625000, avg: 428254.812500

2. vCPU related modifications (present state):
~/at_process_ctxswitch_pipe -w -p 2 -t 15
rate_total: 735626.812500, avg: 367813.406250

3. Cleaned-up vCPU handling:
~/at_process_ctxswitch_pipe -w -p 2 -t 15
rate_total: 840074.750000, avg: 420037.375000
