162306a36Sopenharmony_ciWhat: /sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_shares 262306a36Sopenharmony_ciDate: December 2007, finally removed in kernel v2.6.34-rc1 362306a36Sopenharmony_ciContact: Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com> 462306a36Sopenharmony_ci Srivatsa Vaddagiri <vatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com> 562306a36Sopenharmony_ciDescription: 662306a36Sopenharmony_ci The /sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_shares tunable is used 762306a36Sopenharmony_ci to set the cpu bandwidth a user is allowed. This is a 862306a36Sopenharmony_ci proportional value. What that means is that if there 962306a36Sopenharmony_ci are two users logged in, each with an equal number of 1062306a36Sopenharmony_ci shares, then they will get equal CPU bandwidth. Another 1162306a36Sopenharmony_ci example would be, if User A has shares = 1024 and user 1262306a36Sopenharmony_ci B has shares = 2048, User B will get twice the CPU 1362306a36Sopenharmony_ci bandwidth user A will.
