Re: soft real-time scheduling

Hi, This is offtopic for this list.

from http://gcc.gnu.org/lists.html

"gcc-help is a relatively high volume list for people searching for help
in building or using GCC."


Anyway, for your question... i see few problems

1.    struct sched_param *p;
    sched_getparam(0,p);
Using unallocated memory. will result in SEGV

2. When you get 1 corrected, you may get another error
From man 2 sched_setscheduler
<snip>
EPERM  The calling process does not have appropriate  privileges.
