SubjectRe: sched_yield() on "SCHED_FIFO"
From
Date

Dear,

Thank you for your reply. However ...

The supposed action of my program depended on the Round Robin
scheduling on 1 CPU. The program produced two processes and they would
be executed alternately, because it yielded each other on 1 CPU. The
main problem is one process monopolied a CPU even if it executed
sched_yield().

On SMP two processes were executed at the same time and caused race
condition. The action would not be forecasted.
