Description

I mentioned at last OSPM (1) how proxy execution could improve scheduling on big.LITTLE systems, but that obviously cannot happen until the bases of proxy execution work properly.

I've been given the green light to spend some time on proxy execution, so this would be an opportunity for me to present the current state of things (some grey areas here as I'm still investigating bugs right now), and discuss some points that need to be addressed to make forward progress.
