#2883: setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL) is not always available

Version: 6.8.2 | Severity: normal
Keywords: | Testcase:
Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
On some limited systems, setitimer(ITIMER_VIRTUAL) returns ENOSYS
because the kernel does not provide a way to schedule timers based on
virtual time. In such a case, rts/posix/Itimer.c should use
ITIMER_REAL.
