Hi,
I'm building a new low latency + preemption patched
machine. I've forgotten how to confirm that the kernel
is running preemptively. It's a command to the effect
of 'cat /proc/something'. Anyone know what I'm
referring to?
Try "cat /proc/sys/kernel/lowlatency" or "echo 1 >
/proc/sys/kernel/lowlatency" to enable it.
This is with the warning that I don't know if this enables the kernel
pre-emption, or just the low-latency patch. What I'm saying is that there
seems to be more than one patch for the 2.4.x kernel and I don't know if this
file enables all of them or just one or some.
