Subject: Does the scheduler run every time jiffies is incremented?
Date: 22 Apr 2001 10:52:15 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m31yql2di8.fsf@chantale.std.com> (raw)
I'm reading Rubini's "Linux Device Drivers" and it isn't clear to me
whether the scheduler runs every time the timer interrupt increments
jiffies or less frequently.
Does the scheduler run every time jiffies is incremented?
