Hi Marcus,
thank you for the support.
Yes, I configured the files as follows:
/etc/security/limits.conf
#<domain> <type> <item> <value>
#
#* soft core 0
#root hard core 100000
#* hard rss 10000
#@student hard nproc 20
#@faculty soft nproc 20
#@faculty hard nproc 50
#ftp hard nproc 0
#ftp - chroot /ftp
#@student - maxlogins 4
#di base:
@usrp - rtprio 99
# End of file
/etc/group
simone:x:1000:
usrp:x:1001:simone
I discovered that, testing the following code (e.g in codeblocks),
#include <iostream>
#include <sched.h> //cpu_set_t , CPU_SET
#include <pthread.h> //pthread_t
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int policy = SCHED_RR;
int min_pri = sched_get_priority_min(policy);
int max_pri = sched_get_priority_max(policy);
sched_param sp;
sp.sched_priority = int((max_pri - min_pri)) + min_pri;
int ret1 = pthread_setschedparam(pthread_self(), policy, &sp);
if (ret1 != 0)
std::cout << "\nError in pthread_setschedparam\n";
else
std::cout << "\nPriority success\n";
}
it succeed to set priority.
However, within a gnuradio block it fails.
Any suggestion?

Hi Simone,
is your user allowed to set thread priority? See the Linux notes under
[1].
Best regards,
Marcus

Hello,
I'm experiencing some issue trying to set block thread priorities.
I discovered that my USRP is not able to set thread priorities since
the function pthread_setschedparam(pthread_self(), policy, &sp);
fails.
Therefore, I tryed to test a simple block (whatever), inserting the
core affinity to a processor (e.g. CPU 0) directly in the block GUI,
then, in the block constructor I set the thread priority with
gr::thread::set_thread_priority(gr::thread::get_current_thread_id(),99);
The priority value is retrieved in the work function, and tells that
the thread priority is set to 0 (wrong).
I suspect that there is a limitation somewhere (probably in the linux
kernel or in some configuration file), I tryed it on another machine
without problems (all works correctly).
Can you help me?
