this question is regarding linux kernel 2.4.7-2.4.20. linux 2.4 kernel does support real time sheduler. If using FIFO real time schedule policy, would the case that higher priority thread starve the lower priority thread happen? Similarly, let's say an example: if I have higher prioority thread A and lower priority thread B, thread A is running without any wait or blocking, is there a possiblity that 2.4 scheduler may want to switch to thread B? Why?
If I want to instrument the 2.4 kernel to print out the message for every thread context switch, where should I put the trace point?
