Hi Rik, We ported CKRM to Fedora Core 2 for PlanetLab (www.planet-lab.org). It has been running on 300+ PlanetLab machines around the world for the past few months (on a FC2 2.6.8-1.521). We currently use the numtask controller and a hacked version of the CPU controller. Considering the rather constant pounding our machines are getting, the controllers are working out nicely. We are hoping to roll out the memory controller sometime in April, roughly when we upgrade to a 2.6.10 (or 11) based kernel.
We'd certainly welcome if the CKRM core made its way into FC, as it would simply be one less thing for us to worry about every time there is an FC update. What is involved in helping out with this? Can we simply provide the appropriate FC patch to someone?
