Does a process inherit its parent's RT rlimits? I would expect them to work that way. If so, it should be enough to run your display or window manager under set_rlimits. Then, any app you started in that X session would automatically inherit the ability to request RT scheduling and mlock pages. Also removes the issue of overly fine-grained control. Anytime a user with permission logged in, any app they ran will automatically work. Of course, if rlimits are process specific and not inherited, then its moot. I thought about testing this last night, but went to sleep instead, heh. -- Ross Vandegrift ross@xxxxxxxxxxxx "The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies.
