Let Tlow and Thigh be two threads with priorities 3 and 7
respectively. Assume Tlow issues a pthread_wakeup_np(Thigh).
Will Thigh begin executing immediately?
The non-SMP code for pthread_wakeup_np() in rtl_sched.c is basically:
pthread_kill(thread,RTL_SIGNAL_WAKEUP);
rtl_reschedule_thread(thread);
But, rtl_reschedule_thread() just simplifies (for non-SMP) to:
rtl_schedule()
It would seem that this would result in Thigh getting the CPU ...
Thanks for any clarifications!
