Hi, This is AMD64, but more likely it's me doing something wrong. I'm posting this here as this list suggested I look at schedtool for running SCHED_FIFO on my jackd processes, so I tried it. Clamitous results!
I'm guessing about how to run it so I tried like the example on the man page for mplayer, except using SCHED_FIFO. Since I have realtime-lsm installed and can normally run jackd realtime as a user I'm using schedtool as a user also. Any known problems? [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ schedtool -F -p 20 -e qjackctl [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ QJC starts fine: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ schedtool 7861 PID 7861: PRIO 20, POLICY F: SCHED_FIFO , NICE 0, AFFINITY 0x1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ If I immediately quit QJC I come back to the command line correctly. This is good. If I start the jackd server from within QJC it seems to get SCHED_FIFO priorities: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ schedtool 7901 PID 7901: PRIO 20, POLICY F: SCHED_FIFO , NICE 0, AFFINITY 0x1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ However, if at this point I try to stop the jack server from within QJC the machine locks hard and only a reset button push gets it going again. I tried it with both gentoo-sources and ck-sources. Same results both ways. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Mark -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
