Hi! In wheezy I have (util-linux 2.20.1-5.3): somehost:~$ chrt --help chrt - manipulate real-time attributes of a process Set policy: chrt [options] <policy> <priority> {<pid> | <command> [<arg> ...]} Get policy: chrt [options] {<pid> | <command> [<arg> ...]} And this works for a PID if I place "-p" with the options. Like this: chrt -p -i 0 $$ chrt -pi 0 $$ chrt -i -p 0 $$ chrt -ip 0 $$ In Jessie I have(util-linux 2.25.2-6): somehost:~$ chrt --help chrt - manipulate real-time attributes of a process Set policy: chrt [options] [<policy>] <priority> [-p <pid> | <command> [<arg>...]] Get policy: chrt [options] -p <pid> And this doesn´t work: chrt -i 0 -p $$ chrt: failed to execute -p: No such file or directory Suggestion: 1) Either make chrt command parsing more flexible (preffered) 2) or or even and change set policy to Set policy: chrt [options] [-p] [<policy>] <priority> [<pid> | <command> [<arg>...]] But well second option separates -p from pid. So maybe option 1 is the way to go. What do you think?
