摘要：

Linux is open source software that has evolved rapidly owing to the development, tests, and bug fixes conducted by various volunteers in the Linux community. Fujitsu places Linux as a primary OS for IA servers that cover a range of needs from volume-related to mission-critical-related ones. Fujitsu is actively participating in the Linux community and helping to enhance Linux. This paper describes four features being developed by Fujitsu, in conjunction with the Linux community, after the release of the kernel 2.6.18 that is the base kernel of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. These are 1) the Cgroup which manages system resources, 2) tracing features to improve the visibility of system activities, 3) scheduler improvement for fairness and responsiveness, and 4) utilizing the Machine Check Architecture (MCA) Recovery, which has been introduced to the Xeon 7500 series, to minimize the effects of hardware failures and recover from failures.
