The EEVDF scheduler was successfully implemented to replace the DWRR scheduler. It features more dynamic calculations than the simple DWRR which should make the system a lot more fair in CPU time distribution. The new scheduler is more stable than the old one and improved the Pixelcannon demo performance by around 200 FPS! (do note that the implementation for EEVDF has not yet gone through…

Hello everyone! I'm Akshit Gaur. I am currently working on modernizing the process scheduling subsystem for Redox OS, a project graciously funded through the Redox Summer of Code program TL;DR We have replaced the legacy Round Robin scheduler with a Deficit Weighted Round Robin scheduler. Due to this, we finally have a way of assigning different priorities to our Process contexts. When running…

Hello everyone! I'm Ibuki Omatsu. I'm currently working on the project "Capability-based security for Redox" , graciously funded by NGI Zero Commons and NLnet . In this post, I'll explain "Namespace management in Userspace" and "CWD as a Capability". We'll explore how we reimplemented the namespace that previously was managed by the kernel, and the previously string-based CWD management, using…
