The realtime lsm is something completely different from the -rt kernel patch. The former allows non root users to have certain privileges that otherwise only root has [running processes SCHED_FIFO mainly]... The latter is a patch for the kernel that makes linux in effect a hard rt system. It makes more sense to comapre a] realtime lsm vs. rtlimits in libPAM b] a vanilla kernel vs a -rt kernel Flo -- Palimm Palimm! http://tapas.affenbande.org
