Bug#912762: ITP: tuna -- Thread and IRQ affinity setting GUI and cmd line tool



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Stewart Ferguson <stew@ferg.aero>

* Package name    : tuna
  Version         : 0.14
  Upstream Author : Jiri Kastner <jkastner@redhat.com>
* URL             : https://rt.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Tuna
* License         : GPL
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Thread and IRQ affinity setting GUI and cmd line
tool

Provides interface for changing scheduler and IRQ tunables, at whole
CPU and at per thread/IRQ level. Allows isolating CPUs for use by a
specific application and moving threads and interrupts to a CPU by just
dragging and dropping them. Operations can be done on CPU sockets,
understanding CPU topology.

Used by embedded RT systems to minimize interrupts on multi-core
systems and achieve deterministic operation.

I plan to be the long-term maintainer of the application, and will do
so as a member of the PAPT group. Co-maintainers are unnecessary as
this package is quite old and does not update much.  I've already
spoken with a DD to arrange sponsorship.
