Re: Ingo Molnar and Con Kolivas 2.6 scheduler patches
It seems to me that there is a characteristic pattern of processor and I/O usage that will determine soft realtime tasks, and, like interactivity, it should be automatically detected by the kernel. Certainly any task which sleeps after writing to an audio device should be woken as soon as the sleep timer expires, and similarly for any device with a buffer which is written out at a fixed rate, with some effect to the buffer becoming empty.
