Package: util-linux
Version: 2.29-1
Severity: normal
When i try using chrt to change the real time priority of a process,
it seems that the RR policy is not the default anymore:
$ chrt 90 echo hello
chrt: unsupported priority value for the policy: 90: see --max for valid range
$ chrt -r 90 echo hello
hello
whereas manual says so:
-r, --rr
Set scheduling policy to SCHED_RR. When no policy is
defined, the SCHED_RR is used as the default.
Issue was not present on Debian Jessie:
$ chrt 90 echo hello
hello
$ chrt -r 90 echo hello
hello
