Subject: [PATCH 3.14 34/78] sched/deadline: Change sched_getparam() behaviour vs SCHED_DEADLINE
Date: Mon,  9 Jun 2014 15:48:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140609224814.443200272@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140609224813.282275135@linuxfoundation.org>

3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

commit ce5f7f8200ca2504f6f290044393d73ca314965a upstream.

The way we read POSIX one should only call sched_getparam() when
sched_getscheduler() returns either SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR.

Given that we currently return sched_param::sched_priority=0 for all
others, extend the same behaviour to SCHED_DEADLINE.
