Re: [LAU] Issue with the priority of the sound cards using rtirq

(I don't seem to find the start of the thread in my mailbox) ohci_hcd is there is you specify usb in the list of priorities rtirq needs to raise. And nvidia is there probably because it shares an interrupt with a real soundcard. Rtirq does not raise the priority of only the soundcard, but everything that uses the interrupt that the soundcard uses. AFAIK it is not possible (or simple) to raise _just_ the soundcard as it is impossible to know which irq process corresponds to a soundcard (and which one does not). That is because the labeling of the irq process names in the ps listing is arbitrary. At least that is what I remember seeing last I looked at this issue. You can of course manually lower the priorities of non-soundcard irq processes with chrt. -- Fernando
