Hi all, I have a doubt to clarify. any scheduler class manage the "pick_next_task" internally (e.g.: CFS use a red-black tree and the "fair" algorithm, etc). The main scheduler just:
class = sched_class_highest; for ( ; ; ) { p = class->pick_next_task(rq); if (p) return p; /// ... my question is from the "big picture" point of view: when the scheduler ask for a new task as to the "highest class" first (RR/FIFO policy) and then stepping to the next one (CFS). But, doesn't this treat the CFS process at the same level of the real time process? I mean the scheduler ask first to the rt_sched_class and then fair_sched_class ... in a for ... can you clarify, please where the "real time" task are different? thanks in advance! I'd like to be in cc'ed on this.
