ABSTRACT:
A user-defined tunable, and an apparatus and a method for creating the user-defined tunable, are described. The user-defined tunable includes a tunable name, an assigned value, and an expression that relates the user-defined tunable to one or more kernel tunables. The kernel tunables have parameter values defined by the expression, and a change to the expression changes the parameter values of the kernel tunables.
