Anyway, sched_yield() doesn't really work like it used to be in 2.4 or old O(1) in 2.6. I just guess, maybe what you mean is schedule()? yield()...IIRC...means putting current->need_resched to 1 or TRUE....thus, it will be checked whenever scheduler is invoked.....and that could be long sometimes. BTW, -rt is real time...soft one..not hard real time. Just in case you need bounded latency, whereas normal scheduler could give you unpredictable or unbounded latency. regards, Mulyadi. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
