preempt-rt: Real Time hogging task

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

 



hey

I am trying to understand why a user space MT process behaves in an
unexpected manner.
I have real time process, which executes most of its threads in RT priority,
and from time to time a task ( medium priority ) is executing without
trying to stop.

There are times, that this task is hogging the entire process and no
other **higher*** rt priority
task is getting any cpu time.

Linux is **not** getting hogged. when setting the serial console (
irq/serial ) and its shell ( /bin/sh )
to a higher priority linux is responsive.

Observing the task list  through ps command i can see that this task's
threads when
to un-interruptible sleep.

Any idea why is it happening ?
kernel is 3.2.0-rc5-rt8.
