Title:
5.4.0-24.28 does not seem to apply rtprio, whereas -21 does.
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Impact:
Software that requires RT priority is not working anymore since we
turned on RT_GROUP_SCHED:
commit 9b039fc517876d312e7fa0955571101a299c91f5
Author: Seth Forshee <seth.fors...@canonical.com>

UBUNTU: [Config] CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=y
This is wanted by docker, and the original reason for disabling
it no longer applied. Performance testing shows no noticible
impact when the option is enabled.
We already hit this issue in the past (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1284731), but
nowadays reverting RT_GROUP_SCHED back to off would regress Docker and
since RT privileges are usually required by audio/multimedia software,
it probably make sense to revert this change only for -lowlatency (and
keep the rest as is) and encourage people to use -lowlatency if they
hit this problem.
Fix:
Apply the attached patch
Regression potential:
None, only -lowlatency is impacted, -generic doesn't change.

I'm using the xwax package on a Dell XPS 13 (9370) 20.04, which
requires rtprio privileges:
[daniel@reef ~ ]$ sudo cat /etc/security/limits.d/audio.conf
@audio - rtprio 99
[daniel@reef ~ ]$
This worked fine for the past releases of Ubuntu up until the move
from linux-image-5.4.0-21-generic to linux-image-5.4.0-24-generic.
Today I'm seeing:
Launching realtime thread to handle devices...
sched_setscheduler: Operation not permitted
Failed to get realtime priorities
Booting the previous kernel makes it work.
