We create the /etc/modprobe.d/kvm.rt.tuned.conf file at
every boot. However, there's nothing that guarantees that
the kvm module will be loaded after tuned. Indeed, it's
possible to reproduce a race where the kvm module is loaded
before tuned. When this happens, the kvm module will be
loaded with incorrect parameters as the kvm.rt.tuned.conf
file doesn't exist.
The solution to this problem is to create the kvm.rt.tuned.conf
file only if it doesn't exist and delete it when changing
profiles.

Upon stop action the script is called the following way:
script.sh stop [$HINT]
$HINT is not used if the stop is result of tuned
shutdown. $HINT is set to "profile_switch" if the stop is
result of profile switch.

Added new tuned-adm functionality 'profile_info'. It has optional parameter
'profile_name'. If called without parameter, active profile is used.
It outputs name of the profile it is querying, profile summary, and profile
description. If there is no profile summary or description available it
outputs empty string(s).
Extended tuned-adm 'list' functionality. It now displays profile summary
in the list (if available).
Added summary to profiles.
Extended D-Bus API to support the new feature and for better Cockpit support:
- Added 'profile_info' method. It gets profile_name argument and it queries
the requested profile for information. If profile_name is empty string it
queries the active/selected profile. It returns tuple of the following
format (status, profile_name, summary, description), where status is
boolean. If it is False, the query mechanism failed and the other fields
don't contain valid data
- Added 'profiles2' method. It's extension of 'profiles' method. It returns
list of tuples. Tuples have following format:
(profile_name, profile_summary)

The latest RHEL and RT kernels got support for setting the cpumask of unbound
workqueues in sysfs (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1176155).
This patch sets the unbound workqueues cpumask to the list of non-isolated
cores for the real-time profiles.

This plugin handles SCSI hosts. On Linux these are also used for SATA.
Currently it only supports ALPM setting, e.g.:
[scsi_host]
devices=host0
alpm=medium_power
ALPM is set per SATA/SCSI host. If SCSI host doesn't support ALPM
(it is SATA/AHCI specific), it is skipped and message is logged into
Tuned log with 'info' loglevel.
Concurrently the ALPM settings were removed from the 'disk' plugin.

These modifiers can specify when to assign new value considering
the old value.
E.g.:
readahead=>4096
means assign readahead 4096 only if the current value of readahaed
is lower than 4096 (i.e. the readahaed will be at least 4096).
Similarly for the < operator, it will assign the value only
if the current value is higher.
The modifiers are part of the value, not part of the equality
operator, thus the following is correct:
readahead= >4096
But the following isn't correct, but will probably also work
due to the nature how the value is parsed:
readahead=> 4096

This policy sets the link to the second lowest power
state (PARTIAL) when there is no I/O on the disk. This
mode is designed to allow transitions in link power states
(for example during times of intermittent heavy I/O and
idle I/O) with as small impact on performance as possible.
This may save significant amount of power in idle periods
of the link, especially on laptops. E.g. on x240 the average
AC power consumption dropped from approx. 5 W to only 2.5 W.
