Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] sched_ext, docs: convert mentions of "CFS" to "fair-class scheduler"
Date: Thu, 22 May 2025 11:08:13 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250522-rt-and-cpu-controller-doc-v3-2-483fc9cca591@sony.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250522-rt-and-cpu-controller-doc-v3-0-483fc9cca591@sony.com>

Mentions of CFS are stale since the fair-class scheduler is implemented using
EEVDF. So, convert such mentions to "fair-class scheduler" to stay
algorithm-name agnostic.
