Synopsis: can't get my own policy from sched_getscheduler()

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: rwatson
State-Changed-When: Tue Mar 25 07:47:49 PST 2003
State-Changed-Why: 
In FreeBSD 5.0, the POSIX4 (1003.1b) scheduler interfaces are fully
accessible to user applications by virtue of re-working the
inter-process access control as part of the TrustedBSD work.

I just committed changes to FreeBSD 4.8 and -STABLE to permit the
use of sched_getparam() and sched_getscheduler() for non-root
processes, as well as fixed serious bugs that caused the return
value to be returned in the wrong process.  This appears to be
sufficient to get applications such as the JDK up and running,
although it doesn't completely open up the enhanced scheduler
interface as backporting the complete inter-process access control
rewrite is probably not worth the time investment at this point.
If this doesn't resolve the problems you're experiencing, please
let me know.
