Hi, In the control loop application I am trying to build, an incoming message from the network will have a deadline before which it should be delivered to the receiver process. This essentially calls for a way of scheduling this process based on the deadline information contained in the message.
If not already available, I wish to write code for such run-time ordering of processes in the earlist deadline first fashion. The assumption, however futuristic it may be, is that deadline information is contained as part of the packet header something like an inband-OAM. Your feedback on the above will be very helpful. Hope the above objective will be of general interest to netdev as well. My apologies if this is not the appropriate mailing list for posting this kind of mails. Anand
