Real-time only has impact on the kernel; Userspace does not notice the difference except for better real time behavior.
Does it mean that if we write the applications in user space, they
won't get the hard real time effect?
The threads running in the userspace won't get the hard real time effect?
You use the term "hard real time". The RT patch set does not even come
close to providing a "hard real time" environment, and isn't even
attempting to. It does however provide user land applications a much better
chance for a "soft real time" environment. The phrase you quot above just
means the patches are applied to the kernel and there are no patches
required for user land glibc or your application.
