Pinning for Credit2 is just around the corner.

I hadn't seen this mail, so I produced a patch myself (see my other reply). Is it similar to your one? If you could test it, it would be great. Even after this is done, though, we still need to fix the fact that Credit1 boosts vCPUs upon migrations, which looks utterly crazy to me! I've got (drafted) patches for that too, but I want to stress test them a bit more before submitting them officially. I'm attaching them to this email, feel free to have a look and provide your views. > 2) let the BOOST state can preempt with each other. > Yeah, but... > Actually I have tested both separately and they both work.

There are already quite a few hacks in that code, and breaking even that rather basic assumption would scary an awful lot!! :-O Thanks a lot again fro your report and your analysis.
