(Without having to fork out €BIGNUM to a standards body.) If I can get a decent description, I'm sure I can come up with something that comes closer to the standard, and doesnt produce as many unpleasant surprises for linux apps. > However, the sched_XXXX functions are mostly broken anyway. In what way? Is there something broken in their local implementation, a lack of semantically adequate mappings to the FreeBSD scheduler, or a general lack of functionality in the BSD rtprio stuff it maps to? -- Peter.
