- This option specifies the SCHED_FIFO priority value that will be
- assigned to the rcuc/n and rcub/n threads and is also the value
- used for RCU_BOOST (if enabled). If you are working with a
- real-time application that has one or more CPU-bound threads
- running at a real-time priority level, you should set
- RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO to a priority higher than the highest-priority
- real-time CPU-bound application thread. The default RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO
- value of 1 is appropriate in the common case, which is real-time
- applications that do not have any CPU-bound threads.
-
- Some real-time applications might not have a single real-time
- thread that saturates a given CPU, but instead might have
- multiple real-time threads that, taken together, fully utilize
- that CPU. In this case, you should set RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO to
- a priority higher than the lowest-priority thread that is
- conspiring to prevent the CPU from running any non-real-time
- tasks. For example, if one thread at priority 10 and another
- thread at priority 5 are between themselves fully consuming
- the CPU time on a given CPU, then RCU_KTHREAD_PRIO should be
- set to priority 6 or higher.
-
- Specify the real-time priority, or take the default if unsure.
