chrt

CHRT(1) 							Linux User's Manual							   CHRT(1)

NAME

       chrt - manipulate real-time attributes of a process

SYNOPSIS

       chrt [options] prio command [arg]...
       chrt [options] -p [prio] pid

DESCRIPTION

       chrt(1)	sets  or retrieves the real-time scheduling attributes of an existing PID, or runs COMMAND with the given attributes.  Both policy
       (one of SCHED_OTHER, SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_RR, SCHED_BATCH, or SCHED_IDLE) and priority can be set and retrieved.

       The SCHED_BATCH policy is supported since Linux 2.6.16. The SCHED_IDLE policy is supported since Linux 2.6.23.

       The SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag for policies SCHED_RR and SCHED_FIFO is supported since Linux 2.6.31.

OPTIONS

       -p, --pid
	      operate on an existing PID and do not launch a new task

       -b, --batch
	      set scheduling policy to SCHED_BATCH (Linux specific)

       -f, --fifo
	      set scheduling policy to SCHED_FIFO

       -i, --idle
	      set scheduling policy to SCHED_IDLE (Linux specific)

       -m, --max
	      show minimum and maximum valid priorities, then exit

       -o, --other
	      set policy scheduling policy to SCHED_OTHER

       -r, --rr
	      set scheduling policy to SCHED_RR (the default)

       -R, --reset-on-fork
	      add SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag to the SCHED_FIFO or SCHED_RR scheduling policy (Linux specific)

       -v, --verbose
	      show status information

       -h, --help
	      display usage information and exit

       -V, --version
	      display version information and exit

USAGE

       The default behavior is to run a new command::
	      chrt prio command [arguments]

       You can also retrieve the real-time attributes of an existing task:
	      chrt -p pid

       Or set them:
	      chrt -p prio pid

PERMISSIONS

       A user must possess CAP_SYS_NICE to change the scheduling attributes of a process.  Any user can retrieve the scheduling information.

NOTES

       Only SCHED_FIFO, SCHED_OTHER and SCHED_RR are part of POSIX 1003.1b Process Scheduling. The other scheduling attributes may be  ignored	on
       some systems.
