John,
Keeping the discussion theoretical, There are basically three ways to
implement an RT Linux, one is as you said you change to the scheduler
algorithm to give processes with "RT" priority the CPU when they need it.
But this a only a kind of "soft RT system that works if your RT
requirements a
I'm pretty sure the Unix running on the PDP-10 that I used for a University
graphics course was also running a real time scheduler. And that was back
in 1982.
What an RTOS does is provide a fair method of giving users equal time to the
scarce resources. It does that at the cost of itself taking

rt-linux was used by the original EMC (1) in about 1996 to
port the original EMC over from Sun hardware.
So, it has been about 22 years! Amazing! I got my first
EMC system running in 1997

Yes, LinuxCNC only works with three of the five.

There are at least five different kinds of real time Linux.I about 20
years ago I write firmware for a CCD camera that run on real-time linux.
Real-Time Lins was not new then.
But there is a problem with all RT systems. You get low latency an
predictable timing but at the cost of efficiency.
FYI, if you use Stamps.com the shipping rates are pretty much identical
to Ebay and if you create a shipping label online with USPS, those rates
are very close to the Ebay rates as well. All of these rates are
cheaper than if you ship by visiting a USPS office/Post Office.

I believe the BeagleBone Black MachineKit uses one of the RT kernel
modifications. However, it's the two PRU processors inside the Beagle that
make it possible to run stepping motors and decode encoders.
It actually boggles my mind that decades after say OS-968K, VRTX-86 RTOS or for
