I bumped into this recently. My 'task' is essentially a one-shot that
gets called at precise, mostly non-repeating, intervals. I need to
start and stop it, but it doesn't make sense to restart it anywhere
except the beginning. At first I used rt_task_delete/rt_task_init
every time, which worked, but seems clumsy. Then I found I could code
the task to return (ending it, wrt the rt scheduler), then restart it
with rt_task_wakeup.
I suppose this is obvious to the old salts around here, but it took me
a while to puzzle it out.
