Ingo Molnar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > the manpage is incorrect - sys_nice() is per-thread. (Btw., you could > use setpriority() too.) OK. Where is this stuff documented? BTW, I think this violates POSIX, which states... The nice value set with nice() shall be applied to the process. If the process is multi-threaded, the nice value shall affect all system scope threads in the process. (It does not affect SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR threads, however.) Is it possible to call sched_setscheduler() with a thread ID instead of a pid? That's what I really need. JACK sets and resets the thread priorities from a different thread. -- joq - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
