:Hi,
: I am trying to add new system call for proportional share scheduler.
I have written
:the code for the syscall in /kern/kern_resource.c and modified /sys/sysproto.h
/kern/syscall.master.
:Most of the remaining files related to syscall are auto generated.
:
: The kernel compiles properly but the still the auto generated files
donot show the new syscall that
:i have added. Is there any other file that needs to be modified. I am trying
this on VKERNEL.
:
: Please let me know. Thanks

Hi,
I added few system calls for the scheduler and they are working fine. I
had to use syscall(); function to execute the system call. I want to know how
do i invoke the system call from the command line, because the when i enter the
command on the prompt it says 'the command is not recognised'.
Secondly, In the scheduling algorithm there is one invariant which
requires a floating point operation. Currently i have approximated it, but i
want to know how do you get around such a situation in kernel. What is the best
way i can approximate this floating point operation.
Thanks
Mayur.
