relies on a new kernel feature SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK that got recently
merged into Ingo's tree and will hence shortly appear in 2.6.31.
Is it proved not to negative affect MIDI jitter? It seems to be an up
and down with kernel versions. Audio always seems to be fine, while MIDI
jitter increases or decreases randomly from version to version. It
should been proved that it won't have unwanted effects, before it's
included to the rt patch's tree. I'm a user only, it's not an
assumption, just a question.
This should have no such impact. The flag is only checked for on
fork(), i.e. almost never.
