All, I have been using a small program /rt) that utilize the sched_setscheduler() syscall to set the scheduling policy of a process to SCHED_RR. Been running it FBSD 5.x and 6.x. Now when migrating to FBSD 8.1 I get EPERM back at me. used to be able to run it like e.g. > ./rt -sr -p2 -- prog
which started <prog> in SCHED_RR policy with priority 2. now in FBSD 8.1 I get EPERM But If I do > rtprio 10 ./rt -sr -p2 -- prog it I dont get EPERM. I'm always root when doing this. My problem is that I have customers that need to run their old 5.x 6.x applications 'as is' in 8.1 whithout changing anything. Does anyone know if there is a workaround? sysctl? kernel hint? kernel config? reverting to 4BSD scheduler? regards Mats _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
