cover get rid of the SEDF scheduler
Hi everyone,
This series is the follow up of this proposal and conversation:

Let me quote this (again), from 2006:

Xen offers a uniform API for CPU schedulers. It is possible to choose from a number of schedulers at boot and it should be easy to add more.
-The SEDF, BVT, and Credit schedulers are part of the normal Xen -distribution. BVT and SEDF will be going away and their use should be +The SEDF and Credit schedulers are part of the normal Xen +distribution. SEDF will be going away and its use should be
avoided once the credit scheduler has stabilized and become the default. The Credit scheduler provides proportional fair shares of the host's CPUs to the running domains. It does this while transparently
So, after being "going away" for 9 years, here we are, getting rid of it! Hopefully, I've killed every sign of it, and did not overlook anything.
I'm not sure whether the python bindings are an interface that we consider stable. I've killed everything about SEDF from there, but I don't know sure how to test this. If I should do it differently, let me know.
In libxl, I left the symbols and the data types in place, for the sake of build-time backward compatibility, but any attempt of calling one of the scheduler API function with LIBXL_SCHEDULED_SEDF as the scheduler id, results in an error.
As far as testing goes, I have verified that:
- the repo builds, both xen and tools, at each stage of the series
- booting with sched=sedf no longer works
- with all the series applied, `xl sched-sedf' no longer exists
- with the libxl+libxc patches patch applied (so, with SEDF still available in Xen and xl), `xl sched-sedf' exists, but produces an error
There is an OSSTest patch that shuts down SEDF testing for xen-unstable (actually, for everything greater than xen-4.5) here:

Ok, good point.
I just killed it as I did not see any trace of 0-3, which I suspect were the other previously existing schedulers, but, yes, I'll do as you suggest.

avoided once the credit scheduler has stabilized and become the default. The Credit scheduler provides proportional fair shares of the host's CPUs to the running domains. It does this while transparentlySo, after being "going away" for 9 years, here we are, getting rid of it! Hopefully, I've killed every sign of it, and did not overlook anything.
I'm not sure whether the python bindings are an interface that we consider stable. I've killed everything about SEDF from there, but I don't know sure how to test this. If I should do it differently, let me know.
In libxl, I left the symbols and the data types in place, for the sake of build-time backward compatibility, but any attempt of calling one of the scheduler API function with
LIBXL_SCHEDULED_SEDFas the scheduler id, results in an error.As far as testing goes, I have verified that:
- the repo builds, both xen and tools, at each stage of the series
- booting with sched=sedf no longer works
- with all the series applied, `xl sched-sedf' no longer exists
- with the libxl+libxc patches patch applied (so, with SEDF still available in Xen and xl), `xl sched-sedf' exists, but produces an errorThere is an OSSTest patch that shuts down SEDF testing for xen-unstable (actually, for everything greater than xen-4.5) here:
