Very interesting!
I did this configuration and I can see my core working just in 25%.
I would like to try the same with memory.....I am looking for that.

Thanks.

Hi techs,

Could you please explain or refer me to documentation where I could find a
description of global_quota schedinfo option. Someone told me that it could
mean a cpu limitation in percents like:
global_quota   : 25000 (does it mean cpu limit % set to 25  ?)


The _quota values are relative to the _period, both in milliseconds and refer
to the cumulative CPU time available to all the processes/threads in a group.

See the documentation in the kernel:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/scheduler/sched-bwc.txt

So with global_period being set to 100000, a value of 25000 would mean
that all the threads of the virtual machine would be limited to use at
most 25 % of 1 CPU.

Is it true?
What other parameters mean in below output?
I didn't find any related documentation at libvirt.org.
Could you help me to describe me or refer to some description what below
schedinfo options mean? Thanks.

[root@cpkvm ~]# virsh schedinfo 3 --set global_quota=25

Scheduler      : posix

error: invalid argument: value of 'global_quota' is out of range [1000,
18446744073709551]

[1000, 18446744073709551]  - what this range mean?


These are the minimum and maximum values that were accepted by the
kernel at the time when this error message was implemented in libvirt.
