[PATCH V2 8/9] rtla/hwnoise: Reduce runtime to 75%

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



osnoise runs 100% of time by default. It makes sense because osnoise
is preemptive. hwnoise checks preemption once a second, so it
reduces system progress.

Reduce runtime to 75% to avoid problems by default. I added a Fixes
as it might avoid problems for first time users as it lands on distros.
