I’ve recently begun wondering about kernel schedulers and whatnot. Is there any resource that provides an overview of commonly used kernel scheduling algorithm? The CFS scheduler has a lot of literature on its implementation, but I can’t seem to find much along the lines of the queuing theory behind the algorithm.
