Changing sched.h value (2.6 kernel)

We are working on a OS project were we are modifying the scheduler for the liux kernel 2.6. Anyways we want to make this changes dinamically (changes will prioritize CPU bound or I/O bount processes).
We have a modified version of sched.h which in theory does what we want.
I need to change some values in our version of sched.h dinamically. I think I can to this writing a kernel module (maybe im wrong) but dont know how to do it. It two simple variables in sched.h that we added what I want to change. Any help, im pretty lost right now :(. Thanks in advance

Well guess nobody who has done something like that has seen this but just in case another question, is there an easier way to compile a module besides doing a makefile?? I was using kdevelop and thought if i started a new project as a "module project" he would take care of compiling it correctly.....I was wrong :(

you could probably use autotools, automake in particular. you have to write a Makefile.am file. but it is easier. run automake, which will then generate the Makefile for you. then just make.

Code:

---

#sample Makefile.am (not tested)
#
# compiles and links test.c and objs and libs specified by test_LDADD into bin file called test, also looks for makefiles in two subdirs
#

noinst_PROGRAMS = test

test_SOURCES = test.c

test_LDADD = ./subdir/ObjFile.o ./subdir2/anotherObjFile.o -lGL -lfaad

SUBDIRS = subdir subdir2

---

though, if you are building modules instead of bins you probably want something like:

Code:

---

libtest_a_SOURCES = test.c
noinst_LIBRARIES = libtest.a

---

also you could do it from the command line, or by creating a file with contents like below, then execute the file. It's probably not a problem to use this method until you have a large project on your hands, then use autotools or some other build system.

Code:

---

gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,your_soname \
    -o library_name file_list library_list


gcc -fPIC -g -c -Wall a.c
gcc -fPIC -g -c -Wall b.c
gcc -shared -Wl,-soname,libmystuff.so.1 -o libmystuff.so.1.0.1 a.o b.o -lc
