What does it gain us compared to chrt 1 <command line> ? > - -It is not (yet) possible to select a scheduling policy, it defaults to > SCHED_RR (Round Robin). Until this is fixed, this patch should not be considered for inclusion. Furthermore as already mentioned, please protect the relevant calls by #ifdef _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING as documented by the manual page. And don't forget to update the start-stop-daemon manual page too! If you rework your patch following those remarks, I'm willing to apply it.
