How can I force the scheduler to give processes only 1 millisecond maximum per timeslice ? I have changed the HZ variable in param.h from 100 to 1000, and my rt-2.0.35 kernel runs fine. Using a test process which toggles a bit on the printer port, then calls usleep(1) in a loop (yielding the processor), I see (on an O-scope) my process runs every 2 msec, (as opposed to every 20 msec when HZ was 100). Why doesn't this process run every millisecond ? I tried changing DEF_PRIORITY in sched.h from (20*HZ/100) to (10*HZ/100) but this apparently didn't have the effect I wanted: my O-scope still shows 2 msec timeslices. I admit I don't know how DEF_PRIORITY is used in the scheduler. -- Steve Rosenbluth Jim Henson's Creature Shop 2821 Burton St, Burbank CA (818) 953-3030 --- [rtl] --- To unsubscribe: echo "unsubscribe rtl" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR echo "unsubscribe rtl <Your_email>" | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---- For more information on Real-Time Linux see: http://www.rtlinux.org/~rtlinux/
