CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED permits to group CFS (i.e., SCHED_NORMAL and

At present, there are two (mutually exclusive) mechanisms to group tasks for
CPU bandwidth control purposes:
- Based on user id (CONFIG_USER_SCHED)
With this option, tasks are grouped according to their user id.
- Based on "cgroup" pseudo filesystem (CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED)
This options needs CONFIG_CGROUPS to be defined, and lets the administrator
These options need CONFIG_CGROUPS to be defined, and let the administrator
create arbitrary groups of tasks, using the "cgroup" pseudo filesystem. See
Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt for more information about this filesystem.
Only one of these options to group tasks can be chosen and not both.
When CONFIG_USER_SCHED is defined, a directory is created in sysfs for each new
user and a "cpu_share" file is added in that directory.
# cd /sys/kernel/uids
# cat 512/cpu_share # Display user 512's CPU share
1024
# echo 2048 > 512/cpu_share # Modify user 512's CPU share
# cat 512/cpu_share # Display user 512's CPU share
2048
#
CPU bandwidth between two users is divided in the ratio of their CPU shares.
For example: if you would like user "root" to get twice the bandwidth of user
"guest," then set the cpu_share for both the users such that "root"'s cpu_share
is twice "guest"'s cpu_share.

When CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is defined, a "cpu.shares" file is created for each

8. Implementation note: user namespaces
User namespaces are intended to be hierarchical. But they are currently
only partially implemented. Each of those has ramifications for CFS.
First, since user namespaces are hierarchical, the /sys/kernel/uids
presentation is inadequate. Eventually we will likely want to use sysfs
tagging to provide private views of /sys/kernel/uids within each user
namespace.
Second, the hierarchical nature is intended to support completely
unprivileged use of user namespaces. So if using user groups, then
we want the users in a user namespace to be children of the user
who created it.
That is currently unimplemented. So instead, every user in a new
user namespace will receive 1024 shares just like any user in the
initial user namespace. Note that at the moment creation of a new
user namespace requires each of CAP_SYS_ADMIN, CAP_SETUID, and
CAP_SETGID.

2.3 Basis for grouping tasks
----------------------------
There are two compile-time settings for allocating CPU bandwidth. These are
configured using the "Basis for grouping tasks" multiple choice menu under
General setup > Group CPU Scheduler:
a. CONFIG_USER_SCHED (aka "Basis for grouping tasks" = "user id")
This lets you use the virtual files under
"/sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_rt_runtime_us" to control he CPU time reserved for
each user .
The other option is:
.o CONFIG_CGROUP_SCHED (aka "Basis for grouping tasks" = "Control groups")
Enabling CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED lets you explicitly allocate real
CPU bandwidth to task groups.
This uses the /cgroup virtual file system and
"/cgroup/<cgroup>/cpu.rt_runtime_us" to control the CPU time reserved for each
control group instead.

For more information on working with control groups, you should read
Documentation/cgroups/cgroups.txt as well.
