The original help message says:
-y POLI --policy=POLI policy of realtime thread (1:FIFO, 2:RR)
format: --policy=fifo(default) or --policy=rr
This *could* be understood that "-y 2" would be a legal way to specify
SCHED_RR, but it is not. Shouldn't we at least remove the "(1:FIFO,
2:RR)" part?
Carsten.
